This tempera painting by Gentile da Fabriano, a prominent figure of the International Gothic style, depicts the Madonna in glory between Saint Francis and Saint Clare. The Virgin Mary, in a dark blue robe, holds the Christ child, who is blessing the viewer. Saint Francis, on the left, wears a brown Franciscan habit, while Saint Clare, on the right, is dressed in the traditional habit of her order. The rich gold background enhances the ornate halos and the meticulous details of the figures' attire, typical of the International Gothic style.
