About Artwork: (About 1459) "These musical angels were originally at the top of the left wing of an elborate altarpiece that sat at the high altar of the Abbey of St Bertin in Saint-Omer, northern France. Beneath them Guillaume Fillastre, abbot of St Bertin and the altarpiece’s commissioner, knelt at prayer inside a Gothic building – you can see its top at the bottom of this panel.. The angels play instruments that look like shawms, a Renaissance forerunner of the oboe. The symbols on the scroll held by the two lower angels are not real musical notation and were never readable. On the back, a Gothic stone canopy is painted in grisaille (shades of black, white and grey). When the wings of the altarpiece were closed, this panel and its twin, The Soul of Saint Bertin carried up to God, would have covered the gilded silver Crucifixion in the centre of the altarpiece." - (National Gallery of Art, London)
