In this fresco, Giotto di Bondone transports us to the serene setting of Assisi, Italy, where St. Francis is depicted preaching to a flock of birds. Painted between 1297 and 1299, this masterpiece captures the essence of the beloved saint's connection with nature. The scene unfolds within the walls of San Francesco's Upper Church, where St. Francis stands in his humble monk's habit. With arms outstretched and eyes filled with compassion, he addresses an attentive audience made up not of humans but rather feathered creatures perched on tree branches and hovering in mid-air. Giotto's skilled brushwork brings life to each individual bird as they listen intently to St. Francis' words.
