It depicts the saint distributing church riches, illustrating themes of charity and faith with dramatic intensity. As a leading figure in establishing Venetian Baroque art, Strozzi's powerful composition exemplifies his influence through wide-ranging subjects and his skill in conveying spiritual and emotional depth in his art.
