Passion Altarpiece (side wings) 1455

The Passion Altarpiece, created by Dirk Bouts in 1455, depicts the crucifixion and resurrection of Christ in two separate panels. The left panel showcases the moment of Christ's death on the cross, with figures in mourning below. The right panel shows the risen Christ, with a figure in white at the top, possibly representing an angel. The work, which is an example of Early Netherlandish painting, is characterized by realistic details, vivid colors and a devotional focus on the central figures.
