In a landscape, Saint Anthony of Padua miraculously regrows the leg of a young man lying on the ground. The young man cut off his foot in a fit of remorse after kicking his mother. Several bystanders watch as this miracle takes place. The print is part of a 53-part series of prints after paintings by Titian and Veronese.
