It makes new suggestions about the work's original location, its possible patrons, and its functions an…

Specifically, pilgrims drawn to the Santo by Saint Anthony's tomb probably would have been impressed by the altar's general magnificence; elite Paduan citizens may have been most interested in the civic associations of the statue…
