"Tobias and the Angel" is a notable work by the French miniature painter and illuminator Jean Colombe, who was active during the late 15th century. Colombe is renowned for his contributions to illuminated manuscripts, and his work on "Tobias and the Angel" exemplifies his skill in combining intricate detail with vibrant color. This piece is part of the larger tradition of biblical illustrations that were prevalent during the medieval period, serving both as a devotional aid and a work of art.

The narrative depicted in "Tobias and the Angel" is derived from the Book of Tobit, one of the deuterocanonical books of the Bible. The story follows the young Tobias, who is guided by the Archangel Raphael on a journey to retrieve a sum of money to help his blind father, Tobit. Along the way, Raphael assists Tobias in overcoming various challenges, including the capture of a large fish whose organs are later used to cure Tobit's blindness and to exorcise a demon from Tobias's future wife, Sarah.

Colombe's rendition of this story is characterized by his meticulous attention to detail and his ability to convey narrative through visual means. The figures of Tobias and the angel are often depicted in a manner that emphasizes their interaction and the guidance provided by Raphael. The use of rich, luminous colors and the intricate backgrounds typical of Colombe's style help to bring the biblical story to life, making it accessible and engaging for contemporary viewers.

Jean Colombe's work on "Tobias and the Angel" is a testament to his mastery of the art of illumination and his ability to infuse religious narratives with both spiritual and artistic depth. This piece remains an important example of late medieval manuscript illumination and continues to be studied and admired for its artistic and historical significance.
