Created by Bartolomeo, Fra (Baccio della Porta) in 1510-11, this masterpiece resides in the Museo di San Marco in Florence, Italy. The image showcases St. Thomas Aquinas engrossed in deep thought as he peruses his scholarly texts. As a saint, friar, theologian, and Dominican philosopher of immense influence during the Renaissance period, Aquinas' contribution to Christian theology is immeasurable. The artist's skillful brushwork brings out the intricate details of Aquinas' expression - a mix of curiosity and wisdom that emanates from his eyes. The play of light and shadow adds depth to his face while highlighting the intensity with which he delves into knowledge.
