"St. Dominic" is a 14th-century tempera and gold leaf painting by the Italian artist Bernardo Daddi, a prominent painter of the Florentine school during the early Renaissance. The artwork depicts Saint Dominic of Guzmán, the Castilian priest and founder of the Dominican Order, known for his efforts to combat heresy and his role in the development of the Rosary. In this representation, St. Dominic is typically shown in the traditional iconography of the Dominicans, wearing the order's white habit and black cloak, often with a star above his head, symbolizing his divine inspiration, and holding a book or a lily, which are his attributes signifying purity and the dissemination of God's word.

Bernardo Daddi was a contemporary and follower of Giotto di Bondone, and his works are characterized by their delicate coloring, detailed landscapes, and tender expressions. "St. Dominic" exemplifies Daddi's skill in blending the Byzantine style with the emerging naturalism of the early Renaissance. The painting's precise date of creation is uncertain, but it is generally attributed to the period when Daddi was at the height of his artistic powers, likely in the 1330s or 1340s.

The painting is notable for its fine execution and the use of gold leaf, which was a common feature in Italian religious paintings of the time, used to signify the divine light and to embellish the halos of saints. The artwork's provenance and historical significance within the context of Daddi's oeuvre and the broader development of Italian Renaissance art contribute to its importance as a cultural artifact.

"St. Dominic" by Bernardo Daddi is housed in a collection or museum that preserves and exhibits the painting, allowing art historians, scholars, and the public to appreciate its aesthetic and historical value. The painting continues to be a subject of study for its artistic merit and as an example of the devotional imagery of the period.
