Saint Mark Enthroned is an early painting by the Italian Renaissance artist Titian, created in 1510 or 1511, which is still in the church of Santa Maria della Salute in Venice.

Saint Mark, the patron saint of the Republic of Venice, is depicted on a high throne, surrounded by Saints Cosmas and Damian to the left and Saints Roch and Sebastian to the right. Like Titian's other paintings from these years, it shows the influence of Giorgione, who died young in 1510.
