"Tommaso Portinari and his Wife" c. 1470 is a diptych oil painting by the Early Netherlandish master Hans Memling, depicting Tommaso di Folco Portinari, an Italian banker and representative of the Medici family in Bruges, along with his wife, Maria di Francesco Baroncelli. The diptych is renowned for its exquisite detail, rich color palette, and the intricate portrayal of the sitters' personalities and status.

The left panel features Tommaso Portinari in a three-quarter profile, dressed in a dark garment with a fur collar, his hands clasped in prayer. He is set against a dark green curtain backdrop, which contrasts with the lighter tones of his visage and attire, drawing attention to his contemplative expression. The right panel presents Maria Baroncelli, also in a three-quarter profile, wearing a sumptuous dress with a squared neckline and a transparent veil over her hair, indicative of her marital status. Her hands are similarly positioned in prayer, and she is depicted before a richly patterned brocade curtain.

Both panels are remarkable for their attention to detail, including the fine rendering of textures such as the fur, fabric, and jewelry, as well as the lifelike representation of the sitters' features. The diptych is also notable for its use of symbolism and the inclusion of religious elements, reflecting the piety of the subjects and the cultural context of the time.

The work is believed to have been commissioned by Tommaso Portinari himself, who was a significant patron of the arts and an influential figure in the economic and cultural exchanges between Italy and the Low Countries during the Renaissance. The diptych is often discussed in the context of the international Gothic style and the diffusion of Renaissance ideals outside Italy.

Today, "Tommaso Portinari and his Wife" is held in high esteem as a masterpiece of Northern Renaissance art and is studied for its artistic merit as well as its historical significance concerning the cross-cultural interactions of the period. The painting is housed in the Galleria degli Uffizi in Florence, Italy, allowing for continued public appreciation and scholarly examination.
