This pair of panels, created around 1400, are two wings of an altarpiece. Though the artist remains anonymous, the work showcases the characteristic style of the late Gothic period, with its emphasis on elongated figures, delicate features, and intricate detail. The figures, likely saints, are depicted in a formalized pose, their drapery meticulously rendered. The red background with a pattern of stylized flowers adds to the overall sense of refinement and religious devotion that this artwork evokes.
