This 16th-century panel painting, created by an unknown artist, is a striking example of Northern Renaissance art. The intricate detail and vibrant colors of the work are reminiscent of the period's fascination with the natural world. Depicting a scene of biblical figures against a backdrop of ornate foliage, the artwork originally served as a door for the organ of the Dutch Reformed Church in Scheemda, showcasing the interplay between religious themes and decorative elements. The piece's impressive size (290 cm x 137 cm) and its current display at the Rijksmuseum contribute to its status as a significant cultural artifact.
