Polyptych of the Holy Trinity

The church of the Holy Trinity in Verona needed an image of the Trinity over its high altar, and in 1360 this is what it got. In the central panel God the Father holds the cross with the crucified Son. On either side stand Peter and Paul, John the Baptist and Zeno, the bishop who is Verona's patron saint, and above them, in the gable, Christ crowns the Virgin.

The painter put his name on it in Latin, Hopus Turoni, the work of Turone, together with the date, and no other surviving picture by him is signed. The carved and gilded frame is the original one, built like the wooden altarpieces Veronese carvers were making at the time, with small painted figures of angels set into it. Something may be missing all the same. The art historian Federico Zeri proposed that two small panels of the Annunciation, now in a private collection in New York, once belonged to this altarpiece.
