Saint Gerard with Gérard de Haraucourt (one of a set of four)

1529

On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 544

Under the watchful eye of her patron saint, Francis of Assisi, Françoise d’Anglure kneels in prayer as her lapdog rests nearby. Her husband, Gérard de Haraucourt, is shown in a similar pose beside his protector, Saint Gérard, bishop of Toul. The couple’s heir, Hesse de Linange, commissioned the panels and their counterparts on the opposite wall, which depict himself and his wife, Madeleine de Grandpré. They were intended for the chapel of the church of the Franciscan convent of the Soeurs Grises in Ormes-et-Villes, Lorraine.
