# Saint Catherine of Alexandria [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [CONTE, Jacopino del]() - Date: 1551-1600 - Technique: Oil on panel, 106 x 83 cm ## Commentary Long associated with the workshop of Andrea del Sarto and previously published with an attribution to the master himself, this arresting depiction of Saint Catherine of Alexandria was correctly ascribed by Federico Zeri to Jacopino del Conte, one of Andrea del Sarto's most distinguished pupils. The composition of the present picture is based on a cartoon for the imposing Sarzana altarpiece \(destroyed\) by Andrea del Sarto, a commission undertaken by the master in 1528 which was described in detail by Vasari. ## Related artworks - [Frescoes on the entrance wall]() - [Frescoes on the entrance wall]() - [Portrait of a Gentleman]() - [Portrait of a Gentleman]() - [Portrait of a Man]() - [Portrait of Bindo Altoviti]() - [Portrait of Cardinal Niccolò Gaddi]() - [Portrait of Paul III with a Councilor]() - [The Annunciation to Zachariah]() - [View of the oratory]() - [Virgin and Child with St Elizabeth and the Infant Baptist]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
