This tempera painting depicts a scene from the life of St. Thomas, a prominent figure in Christianity. Created by Luca di Tommé, a Sienese artist who lived from 1330 to 1389, the artwork features St. Thomas kneeling before Christ, who is standing with another figure. The scene is set against a dark background with a boat in the upper left corner, adding a sense of depth and narrative. While the specific moment from St. Thomas’s life depicted is unclear, the composition and figures convey a sense of devotion and faith, typical of religious art of the period.
