| Description |
Nederlands: Het hoogaltaar van de St-Janskerk te Mechelen, met het werk van Pieter Paul Rubens, De aanbidding van de wijzen, 1617
Het schilderij is nu verwerkt is in het 18de-eeuwse portiekaltaar. Enkele koorramen werden in de 18de eeuw grotendeels dichtgemetseld, waardoor de originele belichting is verdwenen. De thema’s van de twee zijluiken – links de doop van Christus door Johannes de Doperen rechts Johannes de Evangelist op Patmos – hebben alles te maken met de patroonheiligen van de kerk. Het contract voor dit werk is bewaard en bepaalt dat het schilderij van de meester zelf moet zijn. Rubens is het bij de aflevering zelf komen retoucheren.English: Altar with the painting by Peter Paul Rubens, The adoration of the Magi (1617). The painting is now part of the portico altar which was erected in the 18th century. Some of the windows were replaced by walls, the original lighting is therefore unknown.
The two side panels depict the baptism of Christ by John the Baptist and John the Evangelist, the patron saints of the church. The contract shows that the painting wa smade by the master himself. |
