# St George and the Dragon [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [UCCELLO, Paolo]() - Date: 1401-1450 - Technique: Oil on canvas, 52 x 90 cm ## Commentary The majority of art historians attribute to Paolo Uccello the two small paintings of St George and the Dragon \(National Gallery, London and Musée Jacquemart-André, Paris\). They confirm Paolo's talent in small-scale works and his ability as a lively and imaginative storyteller. In both cases, the foreshortening effects and the perspective models play a fundamental role; the graceful and elegant characters, the unreal lighting, and the careful description of all details are still very much like late Gothic narrative styles. ## Related artworks - [Adoration of the Magi \(Quarate predella, detail\)]() - [Adoration of the Magi \(Quarate predella\)]() - [An Angel \(detail\)]() - [Bernardino della Ciarda Thrown off his Horse \(detail\)]() - [Bernardino della Ciarda Thrown off his Horse \(detail\)]() - [Bernardino della Ciarda Thrown off his Horse \(detail\)]() - [Bernardino della Ciarda Thrown off his Horse]() - [Birth of Christ]() - [Birth of the Virgin \(detail\)]() - [Birth of the Virgin]() - [Clock with Heads of Prophets]() - [Creation of Adam]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
