Panel of a polyptych with the seven works of charity: feeding the hungry — Master of Alkmaar

Master of Alkmaar. Painted 1504.

A Dutch city is the backdrop to this narrative that shows how a good Christian should help those in need. Christ stands among the spectators in almost every panel. The scenes give an impression of urban society around 1500. The work was badly damaged during the Iconoclasm of 1566, when Roman Catholic churches were vandalized by Protestants.
