Saint Raphael with Tobias, His Dog, and the Fish, c. 1780, Giuseppe Sanmartino, Italian, 17201793, 27 1/4 × 17 1/4 × 12 1/2 in. (69.22 × 43.82 × 31.75 cm), Silver, gilt bronze, Italy, 18th century, Tobias, a young Jewish man, has been sent by his blind father to retrieve money left with a relative. Accompanying him on the journey are his dog and a hired guide who, unbeknownst to him, is the archangel Raphael. When they reach the Tigris River, Tobias is attacked by a monstrous fish. Raphael tells him to catch it and preserve its innards as medicines. Tobias later burns the heart and liver to free his future wife from a demon and uses the gall (bile) to cure his fathers blindness. The lively dog appears in other works by Sanmartinoit may have been the artists own pet.
