Ecce Agnus Dei, Giovanni di Paolo, 1455, Art Institute of Chicago: European Painting and Sculpture
Giovanni di Paolo worked within the conservative artistic tradition of Siena, creating rich patterns and an intensely devotional mood in his paintings. Among his finest narrative works are these six panels, part of a series of twelve depicting the life of Saint John the Baptist, the kinsman and prophet of Christ. Other panels from the series are scattered in European and American collections; they may originally have formed the doors of a shrine housing a relic of the saint. In the first of the Art Institute's panels, the young Baptist enters the wilderness to live as a hermit; later he foretells Christ's role as redeemer, is imprisoned, and is finally martyred at the request of Salome, the step-daughter of King Herod. Mr. and Mrs. Martin A. Ryerson Collection Size: 68.5 × 39.5 cm (27 × 15 1/2 in.); painted surface: 66.3 × 37 cm (26 1/16 × 14 5/8 in.) Medium: Tempera on panel

The Beheading of Saint John the Baptist, Giovanni di Paolo, 1455, Art Institute of Chicago: European Painting and Sculpture
Among the most impressive achievements of the Sienese master Giovanni di Paolois his narrative series of twelve panels illustrating the life of Saint John the Baptist—from his birth, prophecy, and the baptism of Christ through his beheading at the request of Salome. These scenes are enacted in complex settings that exploit the tall, slender proportions of the panels and set off the expressive poses of the figures. The Beheading of Saint John the Baptist depicts the henchmen of Queen Herodias placing his head on a golden platter. The execution has just occurred; blood spews profusely from the elongated neck of the saint. The rich patterning of the architecture, painted in a light, delicate palette, contrasts with the gruesome trails of blood falling to the ground and collecting beneath the decapitated corpse. The distant landscape was inspired by the hills around Siena. Throughout the series, Giovanni skillfully repeated colors, settings, and patterns to create a unified narrative. Eleven of the original twelve panels survive, six of which are in the Art Institute. The panels were arranged in three rows to form two large, movable doors, possibly once enclosing a sculpture or relic. Mr. and Mrs. Martin A. Ryerson Collection Size: 68.6 × 39.1 cm (27 × 15 3/8 in.); painted surface: 66.3 × 36.6 cm (26 1/16 × 14 7/16 in.) Medium: Tempera on panel
