"Saint Catherine" is a painting by the Italian Renaissance artist Lorenzo Lotto, created in 1522. The painting depicts Saint Catherine of Alexandria, a popular subject in Christian art, holding a palm branch, a symbol of martyrdom. Lotto captures the saint with a gentle and contemplative expression. The delicate detail of the jewelry and the flowing fabric of her dress highlight the artist's meticulous approach to painting, demonstrating the stylistic characteristics of High Renaissance art.
