Mystic Marriage of Saint Catherine (Andrea del Sarto)
Mystic Marriage of Saint Catherine (c. 1512-1513) by Andrea del Sarto
Mystic Marriage of Saint Catherine of Alexandria is an oil on panel painting of the sacra conversazione genre by Andrea del Sarto, executed c. 1512-1513. It was acquired by the imperial gallery in Prague in 1749 and now is in the Gemäldegalerie in Dresden.[1]
The work was produced during an early phase of the artist's work, contemporary with his frescoes in the Chiostrino dei Voti in Santissima Annunziata, Florence, and was a major influence on his principal pupils, especially Rosso Fiorentino and Pontormo.
