Specialist note

We are grateful to Peter van den Brink, who has suggested on the basis of photographs that this altarpiece may have been produced in Bruges for the Antwerp market. He further notes that the central panel and wings are by different hands, dating the Adoration to circa 1530 and the wings to circa 1540-1550.
