About Artwork: (About 1524) "This painting is part of Romanino’s high altarpiece for S. Alessandro in Brescia. It depicts Saint Gaudioso and is situated to the left of an image of the Nativity, above a panel of Saint Alexander. Saint Gaudioso was included in the altarpiece as he was a fifth-century bishop of Brescia. He died in about 445 but his bones were rediscovered in 1454, when the church of S. Alessandro was under construction, and were conserved as a relic in one of the altars. He wears his bishop’s mitre and a large oval morse fastens the jewelled border of his cope. The figures on the morse probably represent the two persons of the Trinity – God and Christ. The face of Saint Gaudioso may be a portrait of a distinguished churchman of Romanino’s own day." - (National Gallery of Art, London)
