An illustration of one of the parables of Jesus about coveting too much wealth. An already rich man became richer & instead of using any of his goods for religious or charitable works, he built larger warehouses & gloated over his stored-up wealth. But God said to him ' Fool! This night your soul is required of you: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided? So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, & is not rich toward God' (Luke 12). ...

On Christ's right is the good thief with a polygonal halo; angels carry his soul to heaven. On his left is the bad thief whose pink flesh colour shows he is still alive. His legs are being broken & devils hold a brazier with burning coals over his head. Below, on the left, soldiers cast lots for Christ's garment. On the right are Roman soldiers with scribes & Pharisees. The centurion who recognised Christ as the Son of God is seated on a brown horse. One man holds the sponge of vinegar, which Christ was offered to quench his thirst. In the frame on the left of the Crucifixion are Saint John the Baptist & Saint Paul; on the right Saint James the Greater & Saint Bartholomew. The predella, the lower part of the altarpiece, depicts from left to right, a female saint, Saint Bernard with a book, the Virgin & Child, a monk saint (probably Anthony Abbot), & Saint Catherine of Alexandria. Probably painted about 1368, ' The Crucifixion' appears to be the work of at least two artists, the softer style being that of the Florentine artist Jacopo di Cione, which can also be seen in ' The Coronation of the Virgin'. ...

It is not known from which altarpiece this predella panel comes. The predella is the lower section of an altarpiece & it would have been made up from several panels.

Two other panels have been discussed in relation to this series: a ' Flagellation' (now in a private collection) & a ' Capture of Christ' (now lost). ...

The figures are, from left to right: Saints Scholastica, Mary Magdalen & Anne, the Virgin, Christ crucified, Saints John the Evangelist, Andrew, Benedict, Agnes. Saint Anne is depicted with the Madonna & Child in her arms, while Saint Andrew carries ...

In the background of the wings: left, the Way to Calvary, right the Resurrection. The Archangel Gabriel was originally on the reverse of the left wing, & the Virgin Annunciate on the reverse of the right wing. ...
