The Virgin and Child are enthroned left of centre; Christ is blessing and has a chaffinch, symbolic of the Passion, by him. Giovanni Mocenigo (Doge from 1478 to 1485) kneels holding a banner in homage to them. He is identified by his family coat of arms which appears on the banner and against the altar; his features can be compared with those depicted on a contemporary medal. John the Baptist, who presents him, is his name saint. At the left stands Saint Christopher carrying the infant Christ.
Documentation in the Mocenigo archives, and the reading of an old false inscription on the painting, suggest that the painting may have been commissioned in relation to an outbreak of plague in Venice, but this remains unproven. NG 750 has been traditionally ascribed to Carpaccio; it has also been attributed to members of the Bellini family and to Bastiani. It is evidently a votive painting: such paintings were found it seems both in palaces and chapels.
Collection of the Mocenigo di S. Polo, Venice, about 1840; bought from the Conte Alvise Mocenigo di S. Eustachio, Venice, 1865.
