Observations

The triptych was first mentioned in the Chapel of the Visitation in the church of San Martín de Salas de Los Barrios (León), for which it was purchased. This chapel was founded by Don Francisco del Rincón (who died in 1557) as his burial place. The painting was brought to the city by the sculptor Nicolás de Brujas, which, in addition to the stylistic analysis, confirms the Bruges origin of the central panel.
