About this work

This panel shows six small scenes in a grid. At the top, three figures stand out: a woman in dark blue with a gold halo, a man in white robes holding a book, and another in yellow robes with a cross. Below them, a man is nailed to a cross. On the sides, two riders on horses charge forward with raised arms. The gold halos mark holy figures. The cross scene is the center of the whole panel. Look up cross-hatching next to see how artists build shadows with lines.
