This painting is a triptych, divided into three sections. The left panel shows a man with a long white beard, wearing a dark robe and holding a staff in his right hand. The central panel depicts a man in a white robe, kneeling with his hands clasped together in prayer. The right panel is partially obscured, but appears to show a landscape with a building in the background. The painting is rendered in oil paint, with vivid colors and detailed textures. The artist's use of light and shadow creates a sense of depth and dimensionality, drawing the viewer's eye into the scene. The painting is held at the Groeningemuseum, where it can be seen alongside other works by Pieter Claeissens the Elder.
