Original information about the artwork from the museum (© Copyright - by The Metropolitan Museum of Art - The Metropolitan Museum of Art)

Saint John the Baptist is one of the patron saints of Florence, where representations of him as a youth enjoyed a special popularity in the fifteenth century. In its format and profile depiction of the saint, this picture resembles contemporary marble reliefs, but the soft modeling reflects Piero's awareness of Netherlandish painting.
