COMMENTARY
UNDERLINED TERMS ARE DEFINED IN THE GLOSSARY.
The triptychA painting in three sections, usually an altarpiece, consisting of a central panel and two outer panels, or wings. In many medieval triptychs the two outer wings were hinged so that could be closed over the center panel. Early triptychs were often portable. depicts the Thronum Gratiae (Throne of Grace) in the centre and and Sts Romuald and John the Evangelist at the sides.
The Thronum Gratiae traditionally shows God the Father seated on a throne, with his legs slightly apart, holding the arms of the cross of Jesus in front of him in his hands, while the dove of the Holy Spirit flies over them (or between them).
