The triptych is a type of artwork most closely associated with the International Gothic style (D).
These three-panel paintings were a widespread feature of Christian art in the later centuries (fourteenth to sixteenth) of the Middle Ages throughout Europe, especially in German Gothic art. They were a component of the International Gothic movement, which lasted between the 1370s and the 1450s.
Some famous triptychs painted in this period are:
<em>Entombment </em>or <em>The Seilern Triptych </em>(1410) by Robert Campin
<em>St Peter the Martyr </em>(1429) by Fra Angelico
<em>The Annunciation</em> (1440) by Roger van der Weyden
