Notes
English: The subject is taken from the apocryphal Book of Tobit. Tobias was sent by his blind father, the merchant Tobit, to collect a debt.
The fish (Martin Kemp), the dog (David Alan Brown, Curator for paintings of the Italian Renaissance at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C. , (Leonardo biographer Charles Nicholl) and Tobias' curl (Charles Nicholl) are possibly attributed to the young Leonardo da Vinci (1452−1519), who was in Verocchio's workshop around 1470 - 1477.
