Saint John the Evangelist

This right-hand shutter forms part of a triptych, which was probably commissioned from Memling in Bruges by Sir John Donne of Kidwelly, a Welshman resident in Calais, in the late 1470s.

The shutter shows Saint John the Evangelist, Sir John Donne's name-saint. The figure on the reverse of the shutter, painted to resemble a statue, is Saint Anthony Abbot.
