Saint Francis and six scenes of his life is a 160 × 123 cm panel tempera by Bonaventura Berlinghieri, signed and dated 1235, preserved in the church of San Francesco (it) in Pescia, Italy. This altarpiece is probably the first representation of St. Francis of Assisi "painted standing on the entire height of the painting, in a hieratic and frontal pose, and surrounded by six episodes of his life, only nine years after the death of the saint".
