This artwork captures the moment Saint Anthony of Padua preached to the fish when human listeners ignored his message. With his hand raised in blessing, Saint Anthony stands at the water’s edge, clothed in the simple brown robes of a Franciscan friar. The fish in the water are shown attentively facing him, symbolizing the miraculous response of creation to the Word of God. A cross hangs from his belt, affirming his devotion, while witnesses look on from the shore. This scene represents the power of faith and the miraculous outreach of the Gospel beyond human hearts.
