Context:
The Virgin Mary tenderly holds the infant Christ who reaches up to touch her face. The trangular painting directly above (called a pinnacle) shows Christ crucified. The combination of an image of Christ's infancy with one of his death reflects the popular belief that the Virgin realized and contemplated her son's destiny, as should the viewer.Latin inscriptions identify the four flanking saints, some of whom are recognizable by their attributes. Saint Francis (far left) bears stigmata on his hands; John the Baptist (left) wears the animal skins from his time in the wilderness; and Mary Magdalene (far right) carries the jar of perfume with which she anointed Christ. Only two of the saints in the pinnacles above are securely identifiable. St. Peter holds the keys of heaven and St. Paul the sword with which he was beheaded. By showing the principal figures in half-length (in what is called a dossal altarpiece), the artist gives them a directness and intimacy as they confront the viewer.
