Christ among the Doctors (Veronese)
Christ among the Doctors[1] is an oil on canvas painting of Christ Among the Doctors by Paolo Veronese, now in the Museo del Prado in Madrid, Spain. Its dating has been the subject of debate - the date 1548 appears on a book held by a figure seated on the stairs in the foreground, but in 1976 Diana Gisolfi Pechukas posited 1565 as the earliest possible date for the painting's production.

The work was recorded as being in the Casa Contarini in Padua in 1648, but by 1686 it was in the Real Alcázar di Madrid, possibly brought back between 1649 and 1651 by Diego Velázquez after his second trip to Italy. It was later moved to the Palazzo del Buon Ritiro[2].
