"when creating the isenheim altarpiece, the artist did not consider the context of where his artwork was going to be displayed."

Isenheim an altarpiece is sculpted and painted by, respectively, the Germans Niclaus of Haguenau and Matthias Grünewald in 1512–1516. The central part measures 269 x 307 cm. The two side panels are both 232 cm in height and 75 cm in width. The predella is 76 cm in height and 340 cm in width. The altar has two sets of folding wings, bringing the number of views to a total of three.
