As was typical in Northern Renaissance paintings, the setting of Robert Campin’s Merode Altarpiece is <u>a contemporary Flemish home.</u>
Robert Campin (1378-1444) was a Flemish artist who painted <em>The Annunciation Triptych</em>, also called the Merode Altarpiece.
The Merode Altarpiece belongs to the Northern Renaissance paintings. The three-paneled altarpiece depicts the moment the archangel Gabriel appeared before Mary, telling her she will give birth to the Messiah.
The painting is noted for its setting, which is a contemporary Flemish home. This marked a radical departure from Gothic and Early Renaissance paintings which depicted the event as occurring in a palace or church to communicate its significance.
The use of domestic setting reflected the ideas of the Franciscan Order which stressed the importance of rendering the Bible comprehensible to the ordinary folk.
