Question 3

What about Robert Campin's Annunciation triptych suggests that the patron's wife was added at the time of their marriage?

Accepted Answer

Robert Campin's Annunciation triptych suggests that the patron's wife was added at the time of their marriage for several reasons. Firstly, the composition of the triptych shows the patron and his wife depicted on the wings of the altarpiece, which was a common practice for commissioned works during the time of their marriage. Additionally, the style and clothing of the figures on the wings match the fashion of the time, indicating that they were added at a later date to reflect the patron's current marital status. Furthermore, the inclusion of the patron's wife in the triptych would have been a way for the couple to display their wealth and status, as commissioned artworks were often used as a means of social and political representation. Overall, the presence of the patron's wife in the Annunciation triptych suggests that she was added at the time of their marriage to commemorate and celebrate their union.
