"Calling of the Apostles Peter and Andrew" is a notable 14th-century religious painting by the Italian artist Lorenzo Veneziano, dated to around 1370. The artwork is a significant example of the Venetian Gothic style, which blends the Byzantine iconographic tradition with the emerging naturalism of the early Renaissance. This painting depicts the biblical scene from the Gospel of Matthew (Matthew 4:18-20), where Jesus calls Peter and Andrew to be his disciples, telling them that he will make them "fishers of men."

Lorenzo Veneziano, active from 1356 to 1372, was a leading figure in the Venetian art scene of his time. His work is characterized by a vivid color palette, intricate detail, and a harmonious blend of the decorative Gothic elements with a growing interest in the realistic representation of figures and space. "Calling of the Apostles Peter and Andrew" exemplifies these traits, showcasing Lorenzo's skill in portraying narrative and emotion within a religious context.

The painting is structured with a keen sense of composition, where the figures of Peter and Andrew are positioned in a manner that leads the viewer's eye towards the central figure of Christ, thereby emphasizing the significance of the moment. The gestures and expressions of the figures convey a sense of immediacy and engagement with the divine calling.

As an important work of Lorenzo Veneziano, "Calling of the Apostles Peter and Andrew" holds a place in the history of Italian art as an example of the transition from medieval to Renaissance styles. It is also a testament to the cultural and artistic vibrancy of 14th-century Venice. The painting is often studied for its iconography, style, and its role in the development of Venetian painting. It remains a valuable piece for understanding the evolution of religious art and the depiction of biblical narratives during a pivotal period in European art history.
