RE: A Friday Folly
I said tryptic for a reason, because your writing style often makes me feel immersed in a painting of one of my most loved painters, Hyeronimus Bosch (see "The Garden of Earthly Delights").
I know of yer generously correct usage of terms but I love how yah go into detail (which is needed at all times no matter what). Have yah seen the Isenheim Altarpiece? I know it’s more of a four-part piece, but it’s three different pieces into one moveable altar which makes me say its tryptic.
I've never seen it but I periodically travel to Alsace. Now I know what to do next time!
Well if yah wanna travel to Germany any time soon, I suggest going to the Chapel of the Hospital of Saint Anthony in Isenheim. Of course the Isenheim Altarpiece was made by Matthias Grünewald.
