The artwork, created in egg tempera on poplar panel during the quattrocento period, measures 87x52.4 cm and is housed in the National Gallery in London. In this particular section of the altarpiece dedicated to the Holy Sepulchre, we witness Saint Francis engaging in an extraordinary conversation with a fearsome wolf. The scene emanates a sense of tranquility as Saint Francis gently communicates with the wild animal, symbolizing his ability to connect with all creatures through love and compassion. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, bringing life-like qualities to both figures.
