About this work

This painting shows many people in old-fashioned clothes. Some are inside buildings, and some are outside. There are women in long dresses and men in robes. In the middle, a group of people are gathered around a tall object that looks like a cross. In the top right corner, a woman in a red dress is standing on a hill. She's looking down at something, but it's hard to see what it is. Look up the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium to learn more about this painting and others like it.
