About this work

This panel is packed with small, colorful scenes arranged in a grid. Each square shows religious figures—some standing, some kneeling, some floating in golden light. The colors are bright but flat, with lots of gold, blue, and brown. One central scene stands out: a robed figure rises from the ground while an angel holds a banner, surrounded by swirling clouds. The writing in each square looks like old church labels, and the figures all wear similar robes with halos. The style feels like a mix of traditional and simplified, almost like a storybook for saints and miracles. If you like this kind of detailed religious storytelling, check out the technique: cross-hatching.
