St. John the Baptist, St. Peter, and Two Martyrs
The matching wing, now Saint Petersburg, State Hermitage Museum (inv. Omega 262), shows the Virgin, St Paul, and two more martyrs. There are crosses on the back of both wings. The now lost central panel of the triptych most probably contained an image of the enthroned Christ.
