# Group of Men [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [WEYDEN, Rogier van der]() - Date: 1401-1450 - Technique: Oil on panel, 50,1 x 31,7 cm ## Commentary Group of Men c. 1460 Oil on panel, 50,1 x 31,7 cm Musées Royaux des Beaux-Arts, Brussels This small panel is a piece sawn from the right-hand edge of a larger picture. The nature of the scene to which the group of men belonged has not yet been established. The warrior in the middle probably derives from the original of the copy of a Portrait of a Man in Antwerp, and a recycled portrait could be the basis for the man with the helmet next to him as well. The portrait heads here, however, as often happened, are set pieces used without any idea of actually portraying the people shown in the picture. The rather awkward execution, in untypical colours, shows that the painting could be from Rogier's workshop or by a successor of his. ## Related artworks - [Abegg Triptych]() - [Annunciation]() - [Annunciation Triptych]() - [Bladelin Triptych \(central panel\)]() - [Bladelin Triptych \(exterior\)]() - [Bladelin Triptych \(left wing\)]() - [Bladelin Triptych]() - [Bladelin Triptych \(right wing\)]() - [Braque Family Triptych \(central panel\)]() - [Braque Family Triptych \(closed\)]() - [Braque Family Triptych \(detail\)]() - [Braque Family Triptych \(left wing\)]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
