Atelier of the Diptych of the Judging Christ (Atelier du diptyque Du Christ Juge)

Hinges
Traces of two missing hinges on either side.

Reverse
Flat and smooth.

Comments
This panel seems to be part of the same polyptych as one at the Victoria and Albert Museum (242-1867), one at the Musée du Louvre in Paris (OA 2761), and one in Brussels (Inv. 846). See related objects. Davies argues for them coming from two different polyptychs (see Williamson and Davies 2014).

Provenance
Purchased in Avignon on 23 November 1850.
