"The Stigmatisation of St Francis" (1437-1444) is a notable work by the Italian painter Stefano di Giovanni, commonly known as Sassetta. This painting is a significant example of early Renaissance art, reflecting the religious fervor and stylistic transitions of the period. Sassetta, who was active during the first half of the 15th century, is celebrated for his contributions to the Sienese School of painting, which is characterized by its elegant lines, vibrant colors, and intricate details.

The painting depicts the mystical event of St. Francis of Assisi receiving the stigmata, the wounds of Christ, during his retreat on Mount La Verna. According to legend, St. Francis experienced a vision of a seraphim, which left him with the marks of Christ's crucifixion. Sassetta's interpretation of this event is both spiritual and dramatic, capturing the moment of divine intervention with a profound sense of reverence and awe.

In "The Stigmatisation of St Francis," Sassetta employs a harmonious composition, with St. Francis positioned prominently in the foreground, his arms outstretched in a gesture of acceptance and humility. The seraphim appears above him, radiating light and divinity, while the surrounding landscape is rendered with meticulous attention to detail, showcasing the artist's skill in creating a naturalistic yet idealized environment.

The painting is also notable for its use of color and light. Sassetta's palette is rich and varied, with deep blues, vibrant reds, and soft golds that enhance the spiritual atmosphere of the scene. The interplay of light and shadow adds depth and dimension, drawing the viewer's eye to the central figures and heightening the emotional impact of the moment.

"The Stigmatisation of St Francis" is housed in the Louvre Museum in Paris, where it continues to be admired for its artistic and historical significance. As a masterpiece of early Renaissance art, it offers valuable insights into the religious and cultural context of the time, as well as Sassetta's unique artistic vision and technical prowess.
