About Artwork: (ca. 1510) "Despite its monumental size, this large, double-sided panel is actually a fragment that was once one of four wings of a folding triptych. Its panels represented scenes from the Passion of Christ on the exterior and the Life of the Virgin when open. Here, the Dormition or "falling asleep" of the Virgin at the end of her life is paired with an image of her son carrying the cross on the way to his execution. The peacefulness of the mother’s death, surrounded by reverent apostles, contrasts with Christ’s suffering and the mockery of his tormenters." - (The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York)
