Saint Nicholas Saving a Hanged Man
The panel depicts one of the many miracles of Saint Nicholas, whose charity is still widely celebrated on 5 December. It was originally a predella (a small panel at the base of an altarpiece) that formed part of a triptych devoted to the saint in the church of Santo Spirito in Florence.
