A unique version of Christian art, triptychs form a set of three hinged panels side by side bearing pictures of religious images. The middle panel is always the largest and features the central image, while the two smaller side panels feature related inspirational images. Originally from the Greek word, triptychos, the word triptych arose into the medieval period from the name of a Roman writing tablet, which had two hinged panels surrounding a central one.
This particular religious triptych features the loving image of the Sacred Heart of Jesus surrounded by an angel on either side. The wood tone standing Sacred Heart triptych plaque measures 4 by 5 inches when fully opened. Expertly crafted with gold foil embossed pictures imported from Italy, the Sacred Heart religious triptych is a moving depiction perfect for any Christian home, office or school.
