Talk:Hubert van Eyck

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

It represents, on numerous panels, Christ on the judgment seat, with the Virgin and St John the Baptist at His sides ... and, beneath him, the Lamb shedding His blood in the presence of angels, apostles, prophets, martyrs, knights and hermits.

There seems to be an alternative interpretation: That the enthroned figure, with a papal tiara, represents God the Father. Indeed, it is difficult to find any of the traditional attributes of Christ in the figure.

On what grounds is the figure here identified as Christ?

Sebastjan
