One of the highlights of the auction to be held by Ivoire Angers on December 10 will be this small 9 x 13in (23 x 32cm) Flemish school oil on cradled panel depicting scenes from the Life of St John the Baptist.
The work has been dated to c.1550 and attributed by the Old Master paintings expert Cabinet Turquin to the circle of the Flemish landscape artist Joachim Patinir (c.1480-1524).
