Triptych with Virgin and Child, Saint John the Evangelist (left wing) and Mary Magdalene (right wing Creator: Jan Provoost)
Triptych with Virgin and Child, Saint John the Evangelist (left wing) and Mary Magdalene (right wing), c.1505-c.1525.
The Virgin, seated beneath an ornate canopy in the centre panel, is supporting the Christ Child, who is seated on a cushion on a stone balustrade. The latter is holding a goldfinch, a symbol of his Passion, which is tied by a chain to a small majolica vase decorated with Christ's monogram which holds red roses and lilies-of the-valley - symbols of Mary's virginity. St John the Evangelist is shown on the left wing as an apostle, young and beardless. He is recognisable from his attribute of a chalice from which a small dragon is emerging. On the right wing, with her jar of ointment, is Mary Magdalen wearing a costly gown and jewellery in reference to her worldly life before she met Christ. She is also seen in the background as a penitent hermit after her conversion. The outer wings are painted in imitation marble; the left shows green marble and the right porphyry marble.
The original frame around the centre panel is decorated with motifs borrowed from woodcuts by Albrecht Durer Along the sides are three heroes from the Old Testament - Moses, David and Gideon - and three prophets. Moses appears again at the bottom seated between two owls, which are symbols of the synagogue. All these figures symbolise the Old Covenant, which was replaced by the New Covenant with Christ's arrival on earth. Along the top of the frame are figures mounted on unicorns doing battle with others on lions, which is an allusion to female chastity vanquishing sensuality

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning triptych, titled "Triptych with Virgin and Child, Saint John the Evangelist (left wing) and Mary Magdalene (right wing)" is a masterpiece by the Flemish painter Jan Provoost, created around 1505-1525. The central panel showcases the Virgin Mary, seated under an ornate canopy, cradling the Christ Child. The Child, holding a goldfinch, symbolizes his Passion, while the vase beneath holds red roses and lilies-of-the-valley, representing Mary's virginity. On the left wing, St. John the Evangelist is depicted as a young, beardless apostle, holding a chalice from which a small dragon emerges, symbolizing his role as the beloved disciple. On the right wing, Mary Magdalene is portrayed in two contrasting roles: as a penitent hermit, dressed in a simple robe and holding a jar of ointment, and as a wealthy woman, adorned in expensive clothing and jewels, symbolizing her worldly life before her conversion. The outer wings are painted in imitation marble, with the left wing featuring green marble and the right wing porphyry marble. The original frame surrounding the central panel is decorated with motifs borrowed from woodcuts by Albrecht Dürer. The sides of the frame depict Old Testament heroes and prophets, such as Moses, David, and Gideon, symbolizing the Old Covenant, which was replaced by the New Covenant with Christ's arrival on earth. The top of the frame features figures mounted on unicorns doing battle with others on lions, symbolizing female chastity vanquishing sensuality. This exquisite triptych is a testament to Provoost's artistic skill and the religious themes prevalent during the Renaissance period.
