Hans Memling: Portraiture, Piety, and a Reunited Altarpiece

September 2, 2016 - January 8, 2017 - This exhibition brings together the scattered elements of the famous triptych, reuniting the Morgan inner wings with the central panel now owned by the Musei Civici in Vicenza, Italy, and the outer wings from the Groeningemuseum in Bruges, Belgium.

The exhibition also highlights links between panel painting and manuscript painting in fifteenth-century Flemish art, drawing connections, for example, between the grisaille Annunciation on the outer wings of the altarpiece and the grisaille figures that decorate so many manuscripts painted in Bruges during Memling’s lifetime.
