Saint George Slaying the Dragon — Histoire et analyse

L'influence exercée par l'art de la Renaissance émergente a affecté la représentation de Saint Georges. Si le saint était généralement représenté comme un chevalier en armure à la fin du XVe siècle, son costume a pris des caractéristiques romaines classiques au XVIe siècle. Cela est également clairement visible dans la chaîne cérémonielle : autour de la taille de Georges se trouve un lappet classique, ou un tablier.
