Last Miracle and the Death of St Zenobius

by BOTTICELLI, Sandro, Tempera on panel, 66 x 182 cm

A child is run over by a cart while playing. His mother, a widow, wails as she brings the dead child to St Zenobius’ deacon. By means of a prayer not depicted here, St Zenobius is able to revive the child and restore him to his mother. On the far right, the bishop, who has meanwhile turned gray, blesses those praying by his deathbed.
