The Adoration of the Shepherds
Workshop of the Master of the High Foreheads
This work was removed from a triptych assembled in nineteenth-century Paris from plaques of various origins. The overall style
and the figures’ prominent foreheads are immediately recognizable as products of the master or his workshop, in distinct contrast
to the gravity of the Annunciation figures by Nardon Pénicaud (recorded 1493–1541) that were mounted on either side of the plaque when Benjamin Altman acquired the triptych.
