_The Meister von Werden_ (German: 15th Century).
The Meister von Werden, or the painter of this picture and of
Nos. 251 and 253, which were found in the old Abbey of Werden,
near Düsseldorf, is otherwise unknown. These three pictures
probably formed folding wings of an altar-piece. A fourth
panel, belonging to the same series, is in the National Gallery
of Scotland.
The saints in this picture are Jerome (with his lion), Benedict (in the
habit of his order), Giles (with his doe), and Romuald (founder of the
eremite order of the Camaldoli).
