These three panels come from the same polyptych and belong to a late period, when Paolo abandoned the experiments in the portrayal of space - initiated under Giotto's influence - that mark his earlier work, and returned to the abstraction of the Byzantine masters.
The central panel represents the Virgin and Child, the left panel Sts Francis of Assisi and John the Baptist, the right panel Sts John the Evangelist and Anthony of Padua.
