GOSSART, Jan
(b. ca. 1478, Maubeuge, d. 1532, Middelburg)

The Malvagna Altarpiece (exterior wings)

1513-15
Oil on panel, 45 x 18 cm (each wing)
Galleria Regionale della Sicilia, Palermo

The exterior wings of the triptych represent Adam and Eve in a landscape. Recent technical examinations showed that the figures and landscape were not executed by the same hand. It is assumed that the landscape was painted by Gerard David.
