Flemish school, circle of the workshop of Rogier van der Weyden (1399/1400-1464): Madonna and Child, oil on panel, ca. 1500

Work: 50 x 36 cm
Frame: 64 x 47,5 cm

The work is accompanied by an expert opinion from Prof. Rudy van Elslande, as well as an expert opinion by Dr. Erik Vandamme, scientific director at the Royal Museum of Fine Arts in Antwerp. Both date the work to around 1470-1480. In our opinion, however, the work is slightly later (ca. 1500). The work was further inspected by Prof. Hélène Mund, Mr. Evert Douwes, Mr. Philip Serck, and Prof. R.H. Marijnissen.
