The San Lorenzo Triptych is a
Antony of Padua 103 by 45 cm each. It is now in the Gallerie dell'Accademia in Venice
.
It is one of four
Santa Maria della Carità, Venice, which had been rebuilt in the 1450s, and whose altars were built between 1460 and 1464. The other three are the San Sebastiano, Madonna and Nativity Triptychs. They were probably all planned by Giovanni's father Jacopo. By the time of the Fall of the Republic of Venice all four works had been attributed to Vivarini. During the French occupation they were broken up and re-mounted before being assigned to the Gallerie dell'Accademia, which took over the church of Santa Maria della Carità[1]
