Panel 24. The Worship of the Virgin and Child Enthroned: Sainted Bishops (Yves and Fulbert)
Two bishops with halos and crosiers sit in an architectural setting. One has the inscription SVTS YVES, the other has the inscription SVTS FULBERT. Fulbert holds a small model of a church.
An early description by Pintard shows that the original subject of this panel was quite different from that in this replacement, which was made in 1928 (Delaporte, p. 193).
Panels 24-8 form a single composition showing the Veneration of the Virgin and Child.
