"The Visitation with Sts Nicholas and Anthony" is a notable painting by the Italian Renaissance artist Piero di Cosimo, executed between 1489 and 1490. This work is a detailed representation of the biblical episode of the Visitation, where the Virgin Mary, pregnant with Jesus, visits her cousin Elizabeth, who is pregnant with John the Baptist. The painting is remarkable for its inclusion of Saints Nicholas and Anthony, who flank the central scene, thus combining a biblical event with the veneration of saints, a common practice in religious art of the period.

Piero di Cosimo, known for his imaginative and often eccentric compositions, brings a unique interpretation to this traditional Christian subject. The painting showcases his skill in rendering figures and landscapes with a delicate, almost dreamlike quality. The inclusion of the saints in the narrative scene may reflect the devotional practices or specific patronage of the time, as saints were often invoked for protection and intercession.

The artwork is characterized by its rich color palette and meticulous attention to detail, both in the figures and the landscape. The saints are depicted with their traditional iconography: St. Nicholas with three golden balls or bags of gold, and St. Anthony with a tau cross and bell, often associated with his monastic life. The serene expressions on the faces of the Virgin Mary and Elizabeth contrast with the more solemn demeanors of the saints, creating a harmonious balance within the composition.

"The Visitation with Sts Nicholas and Anthony" is a significant example of Piero di Cosimo's contribution to the Florentine school of painting and offers insight into the religious and artistic sensibilities of the late 15th century. The painting is housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., where it continues to be studied and admired for its artistic and historical value.
