"The Lion of St Mark" is a notable work of art by the Venetian painter Jacobello del Fiore, who was active during the early 15th century. This piece is emblematic of del Fiore's style, which is characterized by its vivid coloration and intricate detail, reflective of the International Gothic style prevalent during his time. The painting depicts the winged lion of Saint Mark, which is the traditional symbol of Saint Mark the Evangelist and a heraldic emblem of the city of Venice.

The work is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its cultural and historical importance. The lion holds a prominent place in the iconography of Venice, symbolizing the city's patron saint and its former status as a powerful maritime republic. In del Fiore's rendition, the lion is typically portrayed with one paw on an open book, which often bears the Latin inscription "Pax Tibi Marce Evangelista Meus" (Peace to you, Mark, my evangelist), signifying the peaceful dominance and prosperity of the Republic of Venice.

Jacobello del Fiore's "The Lion of St Mark" is a testament to the artist's mastery of the Gothic style and his contribution to the Venetian artistic heritage. The painting is often celebrated for its craftsmanship and as an icon of Venetian pride and identity. It remains an important work for scholars studying the art and culture of the Venetian Republic, as well as for visitors and admirers of Venetian art from around the world.
