- Description
- There are ten uneven panels glued together. Each scene takes two panels. From left to right: 'Saint Anne teaching the Virgin to read': Saint Anne in red, the Virgin in green. 'The Annunciation': the Virgin in green, with an ermine lined red cloak, is reading: the Dove flies down over her. An Angel in green points up to a scroll 'AVE MARIA PLENA'. A second scroll above reads '(E)CCE ANCILLA DM' (domini). 'The Trinity': God the Father in an ermine trimmed red cloak enthroned, his right hand raised in blessing. Before him the Scourged Christ on the Cross mounted on a globe which is divided into three parts. 'Saint Margaret of Antioch': in green, thrusting the Cross into the dragon's mouth. 'Saint Anthony Abbot': in black, holding the three armed staff or cross and a rosary with a hog at his feet. There is a bell tied round the hog's neck.
