"The Healing of Palladia by Saint Cosmas and Saint Damian" (1440) is a small tempera on panel painting by the early Renaissance artist Fra Angelico. The work depicts the legendary healing of Palladia, a noblewoman, by the twin saints Cosmas and Damian. Cosmas stands by Palladia's bedside, offering a healing potion while Damian delivers a casket containing the healing remedy to Palladia's attendant. The bright colors and gentle details are characteristic of Angelico's style, reflecting the serenity of his devotional subjects.
