St. Paul is a painting by the Italian Renaissance painter Masaccio. It depicts Paul of Tarsus.A chapel in Santa Maria del Carmine in Pisa commissioned an altarpiece from Masaccio on February 19 1426 for the sum of 80 florins. Payment for the work was recorded on December 26 of that year. The altarpiece was dismantled and dispersed in the 18th century but an attempted reconstruction was made possible due to a detailed description of the work by Vasari in 1568.
