## Commentary

This sweet Madonna of Humility is the exception to the Master of Flémalle&#39;s habitual severity. The Virgin is sheltered by a brick enclosure with Marian flowers - marguerites - at the top. The panel may have been the right half of a diptych, its lost facing pendant&#39;s subject accounting for the Infant&#39;s alarmed expression.
