Healing of Tobit's Father by Francesco Solimena, c.1725 Oil painting on canvas. 72.5x44.3cm. The protagonists of the scene are Tobias, his father Tobit, the angel Raffaele and the two wives. Solimena could have juxtaposed in a single scene the two times (of the miracle and after) in the two women whose weight on the sentimental value of the story is very high (De Luca, 2022). The story is reported in the book of Tobias 10-11: Raphael said to Tobias: "I am sure his eyes will open". [...] Now God has sent me to heal you and Sarah, your daughter-in-law. I am Raphael, one of the seven angels who serve God and have access to the majesty of the Lord.
