# St Justina [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [DONATELLO]() - Date: 1401-1450 - Technique: Bronze, height 154 cm ## Commentary St Daniel and St Justina on the Altare del Santo were probably related to each other like pendants by means of their gestures and the way they are holding their heads. The garments of the two figures, in contrast, are produced in a very different manner. While that of St Daniel, who according to tradition was also at work in Padua, falls down almost smoothly with few folds, the dress of St Justina is gathered at her hips and is arranged, each fold adapted to suit, to match her gentle contrapposto stance. ## Related artworks - [Altarpiece with St John the Baptist]() - [Annunciation \(detail\)]() - [Annunciation \(detail\)]() - [Annunciation \(detail\)]() - [Annunciation \(detail\)]() - [Annunciation \(detail\)]() - [Annunciation]() - [Annunciation]() - [Annunciation]() - [Annunciation]() - [Ascension of Christ]() - [Ascension of St John]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
