# Sts Anthony and Thomas with Tommaso Portinari [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [GOES, Hugo van der]() - Date: 1451-1500 - Technique: Oil on wood, 253 x 141 cm ## Commentary Three members of the Portinari family, Tommaso Portinari and his two sons Antonio and Pigello, are portrayed kneeling, their faces pale, sculptural and almost ghostlike. Above them stand Saint Anthony Abbot and Saint Thomas, two of the family's patron saints, looking grave and solemn, their majesty almost compressed by the absence of a surrounding space. In the background, against a barren, rocky landscape, Mary and Joseph can be seen making their way to Bethlehem, an episode that prepares us for the holy event of the central panel. ## Related artworks - [Adoration of the Shepherds \(detail\)]() - [Adoration of the Shepherds \(detail\)]() - [Adoration of the Shepherds \(detail\)]() - [Adoration of the Shepherds \(detail\)]() - [Adoration of the Shepherds]() - [Calvary Triptych \(central panel\)]() - [Calvary Triptych \(detail\)]() - [Calvary Triptych \(detail\)]() - [Calvary Triptych \(detail\)]() - [Calvary Triptych \(detail\)]() - [Calvary Triptych \(detail\)]() - [Calvary Triptych \(left wing\)]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
