"St. Martin is Knighted 1321" is a fresco created by the renowned Italian painter Simone Martini, a leading figure of the Sienese School during the early 14th century. This work is part of a larger cycle of frescoes depicting the life of St. Martin of Tours, located in the lower church of the Basilica of San Francesco in Assisi, Italy. The frescoes were commissioned by the Franciscan order, who held St. Martin in high regard for his humility and dedication to the poor, qualities that resonated deeply with Franciscan values.

Simone Martini, known for his refined and elegant style, was a master of Gothic art, and his work on the St. Martin cycle is a testament to his skill in narrative painting.

The fresco is notable for its detailed depiction of the ceremonial armor and the solemnity of the occasion, rendered with Martini's characteristic attention to detail and use of vibrant colors.

The composition of the fresco is carefully balanced, with the central figure of St. Martin receiving the accolade from a superior officer, surrounded by attendants and onlookers. Martini's use of perspective and spatial arrangement creates a sense of depth and realism, drawing the viewer into the scene. The fresco also reflects the influence of French Gothic art, which Martini encountered during his travels and which informed his approach to line and form.
