This painting by Francesco Botticini, a Florentine artist known for his devotional works, depicts Saint Cecilia, the patron saint of music, between her husband Valerian and her brother Tiburtius. The scene is set within a room, and features a small kneeling figure in the foreground, possibly representing a donor. The figures are rendered with meticulous detail and elegant drapery, characteristic of the Early Renaissance style. The use of perspective and the inclusion of the donor figure adds a personal and devotional dimension to this classic depiction of the saint.
