Altarpieces have long been a significant part of religious art, serving as focal points for worship and devotion. These intricate works often depict scenes from the Bible, showcasing the divine presence in churches and cathedrals. One such altarpiece is the "Madonna with Child, Saints, and Angels" created in 1513. Painted using oil on wood, this masterpiece captures the tender moment between Mary and baby Jesus surrounded by heavenly figures. The delicate brushstrokes bring to life their serene expressions, evoking a sense of awe and reverence. Another notable example is "The Seven Sacraments, " a series of panels rendered in oil on panel. Each painting explores different sacraments within Christianity, illustrating baptism, confirmation, marriage, ordination, confession, anointing of the sick, and Eucharist. Through vivid colors and meticulous details, these artworks convey the spiritual significance behind each sacrament. Dating back to c. 1320 is the magnificent "Stefaneschi Triptych. " Executed using tempera on panel technique; this triptych portrays various saints alongside Christ's crucifixion scene at its center. Its vibrant hues showcase both earthly beauty and divine transcendence while inviting viewers into profound contemplation. In 1868-71 chromolithograph plates were used to reproduce rear panels of the renowned Ghent Altarpiece—a monumental work that exemplifies Flemish Renaissance artistry. This reproduction allowed wider access to appreciate Jan van Eyck's original masterpiece depicting biblical narratives intricately detailed with remarkable precision. Moving forward in time brings us to "Presentation in the Temple, " painted in 1593-94 with oil on canvas medium. This altarpiece depicts Mary presenting baby Jesus at Jerusalem's temple—an event symbolizing purification after childbirth according to Jewish customs—capturing emotions through skillful brushwork that transports viewers back centuries. Not all they can paintings; some exist as sketches, like the "Altarpiece in Canynges Chapel.
