Dream of St. Gregory 1300

Giotto's "Dream of St. Gregory" (c. 1300) is a fresco located in the Basilica of Saint Francis of Assisi in Italy. This iconic work depicts a scene from the life of Saint Gregory, where he dreams of a vision of the Virgin Mary and angels holding the Christ child. The fresco exemplifies Giotto's signature style, known for its naturalism and emphasis on three-dimensionality. The figures are rendered with clarity and expressiveness, and the scene's spatial depth is suggested through the use of perspective and light. This masterpiece is considered a pivotal moment in the transition from the medieval to the Renaissance style of painting.
