"Saint Paul, Saint John Chrysostom and Saint Basil" is a tempera on wood painting by Carlo Crivelli, completed in 1493. The artwork depicts the three saints within three separate arched frames, each holding a symbolic object related to their respective roles. The central figure, Saint John Chrysostom, is depicted reading a book, while Saint Paul holds a sword and Saint Basil a staff and a mitre. Crivelli's detailed and meticulous style is evident in the realistic portrayal of the figures, their clothing, and the surrounding architectural elements. This artwork is a testament to Crivelli's mastery of Renaissance painting and his ability to capture the essence of religious figures with great precision and detail. The painting is currently housed in the Musée Jacquemart-André in Paris, France.
