The painting includes an echo of a work by Dieric Bouts, which was then in the church of St Laurenz in Cologne and is now in the Alte Pinakothek in Munich. <P> <TABLE ALIGN=LEFT CELLPADDING=5 BORDER=1 WIDTH=320 BGCOLOR="\#99CCCC"> <TR VALIGN=MIDDLE><TD><IMG SRC="/support/gif/listen.gif" BORDER=0 VALIGN=MIDDLE> Suggested listening \(streaming mp3, 8 minutes\):<BR><A HREF="\#" onClick="w=window.open \('/music1/bach/bach\_bwv\_244\_matthew.html', 'newWin', 'scrollbars=yes,status=no,dependent=yes,screenX=0,screenY=0,width=350,height=350'\);w.opener=this;w.focus\(\);return true"><B>Johann Sebastian Bach: St. Matthew Passion BWV 244 \(excerpts\)</B></A> </TD></TR></TABLE> ## Related artworks - [Lyversberg Passion \(detail\)]() - [Lyversberg Passion \(detail\)]() - [Lyversberg Passion \(detail\)]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
