Triptych of the Micault Family (closed)
by VERMEYEN, Jan Cornelisz., Oil on wood, 151,5 x 57 cm (each)
This triptych comes from the chapel of the Holy Sacrament in St Michael’s Cathedral in Brussels, where Charles V’s collector-general, Jean Micault and his wife Livine Cats van Welle were buried. The altarpiece was probably commissioned by their second son Nicholas in their memory.
The picture shows the triptych when closed.
