"Vision of St. Dominic and Meeting of St. Francis and St. Dominic" is a fresco by Benozzo Gozzoli, painted in 1452. The artwork depicts a scene of two prominent saints, St. Francis and St. Dominic, meeting in a setting reminiscent of a Florentine city. The composition is divided into two sections; St. Dominic receives a vision of the Virgin Mary in the upper section, while the lower depicts the two saints meeting in a peaceful embrace. The work showcases Gozzoli's distinctive use of color and detail, characteristic of Early Renaissance art, in depicting the meeting between the two important figures in the Catholic faith.
