Devotional Diptych with the Nativity and the Adoration. Culture: French. Dimensions: Overall: 5 1/2 x 8 3/16 x 1/4in. (13.9 x 20.8 x 0.7cm)closed: 5 1/2 x 4 3/16 x 1/2 in. (13.9 x 10.6 x 1.3 cm). Date: ca. 1500.The scenes on this diptych find an echo in the pages of a printed Book of Hours (acc. no. 20.53.3). It is perhaps not surprising that the same workshop should produce the designs used for both the book and the diptych: each is a small object, in black and white, meant to be held in the hands during private prayer. But the same workshop also produced cartoons for large-scale, colorful works of art, including stained glass, and The Cloisters' Unicorn Tapestries. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.
