This drawing by Jacopo Chimenti, known as da Empoli, depicts the beheading of Saint Catherine. The drawing is a preparatory study for a larger painting and shows Saint Catherine kneeling in prayer before her executioner, who raises his sword. Da Empoli, a Florentine painter known for his religious works, captures the dramatic moment of Saint Catherine's martyrdom with masterful detail. This drawing, housed in the Städel Museum, showcases da Empoli's talent for conveying emotion and drama through his art.
