From the Augustinian monastery of San Florion, on the Danube, this panel is clearly influenced by Van Eyck (it has even been though to possibly be a copy of a lost panel of the master), by Robert Campin and by Van der Weyden. The work presents a monumental landscape seen from above, with the city of Jerusalem in the background. To the dramatism of the scene are added incidental aspects, like the dogs that are sniffing the skull, which as tradition has it belongs to Adam, and the figure of the young man on the right who is looking at us, and who is supposed to be a self-portrait of the artist.
