Reason | Ordered by Emperor Frederic III in 1447, this altarpiece shows moments of the life of Jesus and Virgin Mary. When closed, one can see paintings of 72 saints. Photograph really difficult to take, no tripod allowed, very bad light, contre-jour etc... Just below stays the Tabernacle, therefore a lot of persons are praying just here. Not high quality picture, but best in scope IMO. -- Jebulon (talk) |
