One of the key works in our summer exhibition Mother and Child is this 16th century altarpiece by Peter Coecke van Aelst. Historically significant and beautiful, the work is a rich resource for our education staff and docent team when leading tours. It provides the launching point for a wide range of discussions – everything from painting style and perspective to religion and life in the 16th century.
In the latest Museum in a Minute series videos, Information Officer Teresa Gregorio takes us in for a closer look at van Aelst’s triptych:
