Tommaso di Folco Portinari (1428–1501); Maria Portinari (Maria Maddalena Baroncelli, born 1456)

Paired portraits by Hans Memling of the Florentine banker Tommaso Portinari and his wife Maria, shown in prayer. Their precise faces and rich adornments reflect the sitters' status and Memling's fine observation.
