The Incredulity of Saint Thomas with a Donor from the Calderoni Family

Original Dimensions: 40 3/4" x 65 1/2"
Location: National Gallery of Art, London
About Artwork: (About 1510-12) "Saint Thomas, who doubted that Christ had risen from the dead, raises his finger to touch the spear wound in Christ’s side, an episode related in the Gospel of John (20: 20–29). Saint Thomas’s finger, the kneeling donor’s gaze and the parallel lines of the paving all point to Christ’s wound. The Franciscan friar Saint Anthony of Padua presents the donor – the person who paid for the painting – to Christ. He is probably Gabriele Calderoni, an eminent lawyer from Faenza, or possibly his father Gaspare. The Incredulity of Saint Thomas was of particular interest to the legal profession since it concerned the nature of proof, the desire for truth and the virtue of mercy. The altarpiece was made for the chapel dedicated to Saint Anthony in the church of S. Francesco in Faenza. The painting was once part of a larger ensemble including a picture showing the Virgin accepting her destiny as mother of Christ, as announced by the Angel Gabriel, the name saint of Gabriele Calderoni." - (National Gallery of Art, London)
