# Altar of St Louis of Toulouse \(detail\) [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [SIMONE MARTINI]() - Date: 1301-1350 - Technique: Tempera on wood, 56 x 38 cm ## Commentary Altar of St Louis of Toulouse \(detail\) c. 1317 Tempera on wood, 56 x 38 cm Museo Nazionale di Capodimonte, Naples The picture shows the extreme right panel of the predella representing the scene of resurrecting a boy. Here we find the scene of a miracle involving a small child: a man prays with a statuette of St Louis in his hands asking for his intervention and his child, who had died shortly before, miraculously comes back to life. With its lively narrative quality and especially because of the iconography involving the death of a child, this scene is very similar to the episodes depicted in the altarpiece of the Blessed Agostino Novello. ## Related artworks - [Altar of St Louis of Toulouse: predella]() - [Altar of St Louis of Toulouse]() - [Altar of St Louis of Toulouse \(without predella\)]() - [Annunciation and Two Saints \(detail\)]() - [Annunciation and Two Saints \(detail\)]() - [Annunciation and Two Saints \(detail\)]() - [Annunciation and Two Saints]() - [Blessed Agostino Novello Altarpiece \(detail\)]() - [Blessed Agostino Novello Altarpiece \(detail\)]() - [Blessed Agostino Novello Altarpiece \(detail\)]() - [Blessed Agostino Novello Altarpiece \(detail\)]() - [Blessed Agostino Novello Altarpiece]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
