Os painéis de Nuno Gonçalves: à esquerda, os monges de batinas brancas;
em seguida, marujos e pescadores; nos dois painéis centrais, o rei Afonso V
(ajoelhado, no da esquerda) e os nobres; à direita, os guerreiros;
e os banqueiros, médicos e artesãos judeus.
A figura diante da qual o rei e os nobres se ajoelham, repetida nos painéis centrais,
é o padroeiro de Lisboa, São Vicente


The Polytriptych of St. Vincent, painted in the mid fifteenth century by Nuno Gonçalves,
shows the grand rabbi of Lisbon, with an open torah in his hands, joining King Afonso,
Prince Henry and other dignitaries in adoring Lisbon's patron saint.
