На некоторых картинах старых мастеров 15-16 веков ветхозаветный Товий странным образом изображается анахронично вместе с Мадонной и даже Христом. Возможно, тогда еще не знали, что их должно разделять во времени целых семь веков?
Из вики: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Book_of_Tobit The Book of Tobit (Book of Tobias in the Vulgate) is a book of scripture that is part of the Catholic and Orthodox biblical canon, pronounced canonical by the Council of Carthage of 397 and confirmed for Roman Catholics by the Council of Trent (1546). Narrative This book tells the story of a righteous Israelite of the Tribe of Naphtali named Tobit living in Nineveh after the deportation of the northern tribes of Israel to Assyria in 721 BC under Sargon II. Significance The Sadducees' challenge to Jesus of the example of the woman that had seven husbands serially (e.g., Mark 12:20-22) may have been an allusion to this book’s story, with Tobit’s righteous son Tobias as Sarah’s ultimate husband. Note that Sarah's childlessness is allusive to that of her namesake Sarah, the wife of Abraham.

![](http://4put.ru/pictures/small/66/205661.jpg) ANDREA DEL SARTO (b. 1486, Firenze, d. 1530, Firenze) Tobias and the Angel with St Leonard and Donor 1512 Tobias holds the hand of the Archangel Raphael at the right with the donor, richly dressed in a red cloak with fur trim, and his namesaint Leonard at the left. Tobias's little dog looks out at the viewer and wags his tail to add a sense of delightful immediacy to the work. St Leonard holds his attribute of prison fetters on top of a book rested on the arm of Tobias. The four youthful figures are set before an empty landscape and a uniform blue sky surmounted by a small, blessing Christ in Glory holding a Cross. Rather than the overall design, the innovative and vibrant aspects of the work are the treatment of colour and atmosphere.

The Baptist is inviting the observer to worship the Trinity, and Mary Magdalene is turning to face it full of emotion. The exhausted figure of the penitent, a late work of Donatello's, had a decisive influence on Botticelli's Magdalene. The penitent sinner was the patron saint of the nuns' monastery of the Magdalenes, and this pala or altarpiece was ordered for their church. The figures of Tobias and the angel are very small compared to the others. They might be a reference to the donors of the altar, the guild of doctors and apothecaries: archangel Raphael was their patron saint.

He is holding a small box, and Tobias is carrying a fish in a noose. The fish is Tobias' attribute. He was advised by the angel to use its gallbladder to restore his blind father's sight; the miraculous gallbladder was kept in the box.

There is a donor portrait of a kneeling nun, probably the abbess of Santa Margherita, a small Augustinian nunnery in Prato, where Fra Filippo was awarded the chaplaincy in 1456. Technical and stylistic evidence suggests that the picture was executed in two campaigns - designed and begun by Lippi and finished later by Fra Diamante.

Tobias is holding a shining fish, with whose gall bladder he has, according to the story in the Old Testament, cured his father's blindness. St Jerome is on the right with a lion (his main attribute) and a magnificent book. The work is believed to be by workshop assistants, including Francesco Penni and Giulio Romano. In 1813 the army of Napoleon brought the painting to France where it was transferred from the original wood panel to canvas.
