This triptych, painted by Flemish master Hans Memling in 1479, depicts Saint John the Baptist and Saint Veronica, two prominent figures in Christian tradition. The artwork is housed in the Memling Museum in Bruges, Belgium, and is a quintessential example of Early Netherlandish painting. The two panels are set within a gothic architectural framework, with the figures placed within a landscape, adding depth and realism to the composition. The meticulous detail and rich colors are characteristic of Memling's work, showcasing the artistic sophistication of the period.
