В 1484 икона заказана для часовни в Кертоза в г. Падуя (Ит.)
The picture was commissioned in 1484 for a chapel in the Certosa at Padua.
Дополненная сверху резным изображением архангела Михаила, она служила алтарём.
The contract stipulated that the altarpiece, including a frame decorated at the top with a carved figure of St Michael, should be completed in eight months.
Although he was trained in the workshop of his elder brother, Antonio, it was Mantegna's work at Padua that decisively influenced Bartolomeo.
