Dating from about 1500 and probably from the Upper Rhine, this museum quality polychrome decorated lime wood panel depicts The Dormition or Death of the Virgin. She is shown lying on a bed surrounded by the Apostles, many of whom can be identified by their attributes. Rather charmingly her shoes can be seen under the bed. The deeply carved panel is mounted on an old red velvet covered board. 47 1/2 inches high x 32 1/2 inches wide.
