Dragan Altarpiece

Madonna and Child Enthroned with Saints (1496-1498) by Cima da Conegliano

Madonna and Child Enthroned with Saints is a 1496-1498 oil painting by Cima da Conegliano, originally painted on panel but later transferred to canvas.^[1] It is also known as the Dragan Altarpiece after Giorgio Dragan, a shipowner who commissioned it for his personal altar in the church of Santa Maria della Carità in Venice.^[1] To the left of the throne is a female saint (possibly Catherine of Alexandria), George and Nicholas, whilst to the right are Anthony Abbot, Sebastian and another female saint (probably Lucy).^[1]

It was acquired by the state in 1812 when that church was suppressed and converted into the main section of the Gallerie dell'Accademia, in Venice, where it still hangs.^[1]
