Description
English: Donated by the Cadard family. A February 1452 contract specified that both Quarton and Pierre Villate would work on the piece, but art historians have struggled to detect two hands in the works as it exists, although Dominique Thiébaut suggests some of the sheltering figures are weaker than the rest of the work, and by Villate. One possibility is that Villate was responsible for a predella now lost.
