Saint Nicholas of Bari (the fourth-century Archbishop of Myra; in 1087 his remains were transferred to Bari) is shown on the right with the three golden spheres which he gave to three young women who could not afford a dowry. Saint John the Baptist (on the left) wears the camel skin he wore in the desert and holds a crystal cross.
This altarpiece, commissioned by Bernardino Ansidei for the chapel of St Nicholas of Bari in the church of S. Fiorenzo in Perugia, developed the architectural setting and compositional scheme made popular in Perugia by Perugino. The picture is dated 1505 (although the numerals have sometimes been read as 1506 or 1507), and was probably commissioned in about 1504. One of the predella paintings for the altarpiece is also in the Collection (NG 6480).
Bought by Gavin Hamilton for Lord Robert Spencer, 1764; later given to the 4th Duke of Marlborough; from whose descendants bought, 1885.
