"The Calling of the Sons of Zebedee" is a Renaissance painting by the Venetian artist Marco Basaiti, dated to the early 16th century. This work of religious art depicts the biblical scene from the Gospel of Matthew (Matthew 4:21-22), in which Jesus calls James and John, the sons of Zebedee, to leave their lives as fishermen and follow him, thereby becoming his disciples. The painting is notable for its representation of the figures with a sense of calm and serenity, characteristic of Basaiti's style, which often reflects the influence of his contemporaries, Giovanni Bellini and Cima da Conegliano.

The composition of the painting is balanced and harmonious, with the figures of Jesus and the two brothers positioned in a triangular formation, a common device in Renaissance art to create a sense of stability and focus. The background typically features a landscape that, while subdued, serves to enhance the spiritual and contemplative mood of the scene. Basaiti's use of color and light demonstrates his mastery of the Venetian coloristic tradition, with a palette that is both rich and nuanced.

"The Calling of the Sons of Zebedee" is considered an important work in Basaiti's oeuvre, illustrating his ability to convey narrative and emotion through subtle gestures and expressions. The painting is also a valuable example of the Venetian School's contribution to the High Renaissance period, reflecting the region's particular interest in color, light, and atmosphere. The artwork is housed in a notable museum or gallery collection, where it continues to be studied and admired for its artistic and historical significance.
