Saint James and Saint Lucy Predella is a circa 1426 to 1428 series of five tempera on panel paintings by Beato Angelico. Together, and possibly with other unknown paintings, they formed the predella to a single altarpiece, now lost or not clearly identified. They are dated on the basis of stylistic motifs and they cannot be later than 1435, when Andrea di Giusto copied Naming in the predella of his own altarpiece now in the Museo civico in Prato.[1]
