tempera on panel, h 22cm × w 48cm More details

Saint Nicholas was renowned for his charitable deeds in the central Italian town of Tolentino. He is here shown in the robes of an Augustinian friar, performing one of the many posthumous miracles that led to his canonisation in 1446. This small panel formed part of an altarpiece in the church of Santo Spirito, Florence, in which town Zanobi Machiavelli principally worked.
