The Marriage of Saint Catherine of Siena

The Virgin Mary sits on a throne at the center, holding the infant Jesus, with a gold ground and a formal, frontal arrangement that includes a kneeling figure on the left and a bishop on the right. Mary wears a dark mantle with a gold floral pattern over a pink gown, while the surrounding figures wear rich blues, blacks, and reds, all set against luminous gold. The painting reflects Lorenzo d'Alessandro's late medieval/early Renaissance Umbrian style, with elongated, hierarchically arranged figures, elegant drapery, and a devotional, ceremonial mood created by the static composition and gilded background.
