The Holy Family with Sts. Francis, Anthony, Magdalene, John and ElizabethBonifazio Veronese

This oil on canvas (1525–27) shows the Holy Family seated outdoors, with Mary offering fruit to the Christ Child held by Joseph. At their side stand the young Saint John the Baptist and the Archangel Raphael guiding Tobias, who carries a fish. The combination of figures from different episodes may connect to Renaissance interest in linking domestic piety with protective intercession.
