About Artwork: (Likely early 1480s-1490) "This panel once formed the left shutter of an altarpiece in the Benedictine abbey at Liesborn in north-west Germany. The right-hand shutter, which shows Saints Gregory, Maurice and Augustine, is also in the National Gallery’s collection. Saints Ambrose, Exuperius and Jerome are shown here beneath a vaulted Gothic ceiling, its structure is defined by red articulating ribs. It is probably intended to resemble a church interior. Saint Ambrose, Bishop of Milan, appears on the left in liturgical dress, including a mitre (hat) and a crosier which, as it resembles a shepherd’s crook, symbolises his role as shepherd of Christians. Saint Exuperius is shown in armour, a reference to his role in the Theban legion of the Roman army; its members all converted to Christianity in the fourth century. They were led by Saint Maurice, who appears in the centre of the opposite shutter. Saint Jerome stands with the lion that, according to legend, became his companion after he removed a thorn from its paw." - (National Gallery of Art, London)
