EDITORS COMMENTS
The Annunciation Triptych, also known as the Merode Altarpiece, is a captivating masterpiece that transports viewers to a Netherlandish interior in the 15th century. Painted by the Master of Flemalle (Robert Campin), this oil on oak artwork measures 64.1x63.2 cm and is currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. The central panel of this altarpiece depicts a significant moment from Christian history: Gabriel's visitation to Mary, informing her that she will become the mother of Jesus. The scene unfolds within an intricately detailed room, complete with a fireplace, candlestick, and cooking pot. The artist's attention to detail brings life to every element present. It is believed that Rogier van der Weyden and Jacques Daret may have assisted Campin in creating this remarkable piece. The shutters on either side of the central panel feature wings painted with scenes from the life of Christ. This early Netherlandish artwork showcases elements characteristic of Gothic art while also reflecting influences from Northern Renaissance styles. Its exquisite craftsmanship and religious subject matter make it an important representation of devotion during medieval times. As you gaze upon this triptych print, let yourself be transported back in time to witness one of Christianity's most pivotal moments—the annunciation—captured beautifully by these talented artists' hands.
