At the centre stands the Archangel Raphael, holding the hand of the young Tobias, who carries the fish associated with his biblical journey. To the left, St. Lawrence is identifiable by his traditional attribute, the gridiron, while the donor, Leonardo di Lorenzo Morelli, kneels in prayer at the far left. Above the group, a small figure of Christ bearing the cross appears within a cloud, providing a spiritual anchor to the composition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDel Sarto employs a sophisticated use of colour and light, characteristic of his mature style. The drapery of the figures, particularly the voluminous green mantle of the Archangel, demonstrates his technical precision and ability to render fabric with weight and volume. The figures are arranged in a balanced, harmonious grouping that reflects the classical ideals of the period. The background features a soft, atmospheric landscape that recedes into the distance, providing a sense of depth without distracting from the primary subjects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCommissioned for the church of Orsanmichele in Florence, the work demonstrates the artist's skill in integrating portraiture with religious narrative. The donor is rendered with individualised features, suggesting a direct observation of the patron. The painting is notable for its clarity and the gentle interaction between the figures, which creates a sense of quiet contemplation. The soft modelling of the faces and the subtle transitions of light across the surfaces are hallmarks of del Sarto's approach to oil painting, which influenced many of his contemporaries in Florence. This piece remains a clear example of the refined aesthetic that defined the early sixteenth-century Florentine school.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/portrait-of-charles-i-of-england-anthony-van-dyck\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003ePortrait of Charles I of England - Anthony van Dyck — Anthony van Dyck\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/the-assumption-of-the-virgin-with-saints-michael-and-benedict-luca-signorelli\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eThe Assumption of the Virgin with Saints Michael and Benedict - Luca Signorelli — Luca Signorelli\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Andrea del Sarto","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58526871781711,"sku":null,"price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58526926569807,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58526926602575,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58526926635343,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58526926668111,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58526926700879,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58526926733647,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58526926766415,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58526926799183,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58526926831951,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58526926864719,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58526926897487,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Archangel-Raphael-with-Tobias-St_Poster_CompositorV1_1786493496945.jpg?v=1787233014","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/products\/archangel-raphael-with-tobias-st-lawrence-and-the-donor-leonardo-di-lorenzo-morelli-andrea-del-sarto","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
