Probably executed between c. 1438–1440 \, it depicts the Virgin Mary holding the Child Jesus in a Gothic cathedra l. Mary is presented as Queen of Heaven wearing a jewel-studded crown\, cr adling a playful child Christ who gazes at her and grips the neckline of h er red dress in a manner that recalls the 13th-century Byzantine tradition of the Eleusa icon. Tracery in the arch at the rear of the nave contains wooden carvings depicting episodes from Mary's life\, while a faux bois sc ulpture in a niche shows her holding the child in a similar pose. Erwin Pa nofsky sees the painting composed as if the main figures in the panel are intended to be the sculptures come to life. In a doorway to the right\, tw o angels sing psalms from a hymn book. Like other Byzantine depictions of the Madonna\, van Eyck depicts a monumental Mary\, unrealistically large c ompared to her surroundings. The panel contains closely observed beams of light flooding through the cathedral's windows. It illuminates the interio r before culminating in two pools on the floor.
