St. Antony 1471

Domenico Ghirlandaio's "St. Antony" is a fresco painted in 1471, showcasing the artist's mastery of Early Renaissance style. Depicting St. Antony standing in a classical architectural setting, the figure is realistically portrayed with detailed features, a long white beard, and a contemplative expression. The use of light and shadow enhances the three-dimensionality of the figure, creating a sense of depth and realism. The artist's precise rendering of the saint's garments and the architectural elements reflects the influence of classical art on his work, signifying the revival of classical ideals during the Renaissance era.
