Sobre a escultura
This relief, which seems to have formed the central part of a carved altarpiece or an antependium relief, was made for the church of SS Trinità at Padua. Following the destruction of the church in 1509, the relief was moved, first to the church of San Giacomo (in 1530) and later (between 1811 and 1817) to the Lazara Palace. The tonsured figure in the rear place of the relief appears to represent the donor, who probably held the office of Prevesto della SS Trinità. A native of Padua, Bellano seems to have been a member of the studio of Donatello (active in Padua 1443-53). The carving is closely related to the relief of the Miracle of the Mule which forms part of a reliquary chest carved by Bellano for the Santo at Padua in 1469-72, and may have been produced about 1470-75.

The church was destroyed in 1509 during the siege of Padua but the altar (and benefice of the church) was transferred to the church of San Giacomo in 1530. After this church was suppressed in 1811, the relief came into the possession of Cavaliere Giovanni di Lazara and is documented in the Palazzo Lazara a San Francesco at Padua in 1817. It was acquired from there by the Milanese dealer Baslini who sold the relief to the Museum in 1878.
