The St Louis of Orsanmichele is a turning-point in Donatello's maturity. The search for a naturalistic rendering was intensified, and unrealistic elements have been discarded. This process reached its highest point in the Prophet Jeremiah and the Prophet Habakkuk and ended in the 1440s with Donatello's participation in the decoration of the Campanile.
The statue suffered slight damage in the flood of 1966.
