The composition on the central compartment follows the right half of the engraving of 1620 by L. Vorsterman (Holl.7) after a drawing of Sir P.P. Rubens in the Louvre, Paris (inv.no.20.138). Rubens' drawing is a study for the predella of his altarpiece for the Church of Saint John in Malines, kept since 1802 in the Musée des Beaux Arts, Marseille.
