Van Riebeke-Parmentier triptych

About this work

This painting is a triptych, meaning it has three panels. The center panel shows a religious scene with many people, while the side panels show fewer people and more landscape. The people are dressed in old-fashioned clothing, and the background is a cityscape with buildings and a river. In the center panel, a woman sits on a throne, and a man stands next to her. The side panels show a man holding a staff and a woman holding a book. The painting is done in oil paint, which gives it a rich, detailed look. The artist who painted this is Jan Provoost, and you can find more of his work at the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium.
