medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Hi Meg, I don't think I'm the Marjorie you were thinking about, since
I'm not at all an Art historian, but maybe this will be of any help for
the Issenheim altarpiece:
Here is a large enough picture:

I also like those other ones, maybe less readable in the classroom, but
that give a good idea oif the actal size of the altarpiece:
