Wilton Diptych

The Wilton Diptych, c. 1395–1399. Each panel is 53 cm × 37 cm (21 in × 15 in).

The Wilton Diptych (made c. 1395–1399) is a small portable diptych of two hinged panels, painted on both sides, now in the National Gallery, London. It is an extremely rare survival of a late medieval religious panel painting from England. The diptych was painted for King Richard II of England, who is depicted kneeling before the Virgin and Child in what is known as a donor portrait. He is presented to them by (left to right) the English saints King Edmund the Martyr, King Edward the Confessor and patron saint, John the Baptist.[1] The painting is an outstanding example of the International Gothic style, and the nationality of the unknown artist is probably French or English.[2]
