About this work

This painting is a triptych wing, divided into two main sections. On the left, a woman with long hair and a halo is depicted in a red dress with a green cloak. She is holding a small object in her hands. On the right, another woman with a white head covering and a halo is shown in a black dress with a red cloak. She is also holding a small object. The background of the painting is gold, with some greenery visible behind the women. The painting appears to be quite old, with visible cracks in the surface. The colors are muted, with a focus on earth tones. The overall effect is one of serenity and contemplation.
