unusual facts about The Mystic Lamb



Santa Maria del Parral

One work in particular, The Fountain of Grace (The Triumph of the Church over the Synagogue), listed in the Convent's Libero de Bercero (Vellum Book) as a gift of the King in 1454, was originally attributed to a follower of the School of Jan van Eyck, as it uses the same symbolic language and constructional forms as part of The Mystic Lamb polytych in Saint Bavo Cathedral in Ghent, Belgium.
