Originally painted for the Venetian church of San Marziale, Tobias and Archangel Raphael has been the subject of much controversy among critics. In his Lives of the Most Excellent Painters, Sculptors, and Architects (1550), the Tuscan artist and historian Giorgio Vasari claims that Titian painted it in 1507.
The painting comes from the church of Santa Caterina in Venice and was attested (by Boschini in 1664) as being on an altar dedicated to the Archangel Raphael on the right-hand side of the church.
