It was for one of his most important patrons, the fabulously wealthy banker, Vincenzo Giustiniani, that Caravaggio painted one of his most moving works – the "Incredulity of St. Thomas." The skeptical apostle Thomas probes Christ's wound with his finger in a disturbingly graphic way that only Caravaggio could represent.
