The Pala delle Convertite or The Trinity with Saints Mary Magdalen and John the Baptist, (the museum's name) or Holy Trinity, is an altarpiece by the Italian Renaissance painter Sandro Botticelli and his workshop, traditionally dated to c. 1491–1493. It is now in the Courtauld Gallery in London.[1] It is now thought the painting was begun much earlier, perhaps in the 1470s, and was worked on during three decades.[2]

It was commissioned by the Arte dei Medici e degli Speziali (guild of the Doctors and Pharmacists, to which the painters also belonged) for the church of Santa Elisabetta delle Convertite in Florence, a church institution housing former prostitutes or fallen women, who had converted from their previous life, and whose patron saint was Mary Magdalene[3] The traditional Italian name means the altarpiece or "panel" (pala) of the "converted ones" (convertite).

A restoration of the painting was completed in 2021.[4]
