Rogier's grandson, Goossen van der Weyden was also a painter who ran a large studio. The bill for the Triptych of Abbot Antonius Tsgrooten painted in 1507 still survives, so that we can be sure that it is the work of Goossen van der Weyden. The abbot probably commissioned this little triptych for his private quarters. He is shown kneeling on the right-hand panel, in the presence of the Virgin Mary. The central panel depicts Christ as intermediary and Man of Sorrows, surrounded by the instruments of his Passion.
