Painting Description
"Sts. Anthony and Thomas with Tommaso Portinari" is a notable work created by the Early Netherlandish painter Hugo van der Goes between 1476 and 1479. This painting is part of the larger Portinari Altarpiece, a triptych commissioned by the Italian banker Tommaso Portinari for the church of San Egidio in the hospital of Santa Maria Nuova in Florence. Van der Goes, one of the most significant Flemish painters of the 15th century, is renowned for his detailed and expressive style, which is evident in this work.
The painting depicts Tommaso Portinari, the donor, kneeling in prayer, accompanied by his patron saints, St. Anthony the Great and St. Thomas Aquinas. St. Anthony, recognizable by his traditional attributes such as the tau cross and the bell, stands to the left of Portinari, while St. Thomas Aquinas, identifiable by his Dominican habit and the sunburst on his chest, stands to the right. The inclusion of these saints not only reflects Portinari's personal devotion but also serves to underscore his piety and status.
Van der Goes' meticulous attention to detail is evident in the intricate rendering of the figures' garments and the lifelike portrayal of their faces. The artist's use of oil paint allows for a rich, luminous quality that enhances the realism of the scene. The composition is carefully balanced, with the figures arranged in a harmonious manner that guides the viewer's eye across the painting.
The Portinari Altarpiece, including "Sts. Anthony and Thomas with Tommaso Portinari," is celebrated for its innovative use of space and perspective, as well as its emotional depth. Van der Goes' ability to convey complex theological themes through his art has cemented his reputation as a master of the Northern Renaissance. Today, the Portinari Altarpiece is housed in the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, where it continues to be admired for its artistic and historical significance.
