The Story of David Panels are two c. 1445-1455 rectangular tempera on panel paintings by Pesellino, individually entitled The Story of David and Goliath and The Triumph of David.[1] They were probably set into the panelling of a private room, perhaps above a chest, though Medici emblems within them suggest they may have originally been part of a pair of cassoni for the marriage of a member of that family.[1] They are both in the National Gallery, London, which acquired them together in 2000 with assistance from the Art Fund.[2][3][4]
