About this work

Artist: Hieronymus Bosch (c. 1450–1516)
Year: c. 1512–1515
Medium: Oil on oak panel
Original size: 147.1 × 212 cm
Collection: Museo del Prado, Madrid
Movement: Northern Renaissance

Read from left to right, the triptych runs from the Fall to damnation. The left wing shows the rebel angels cast out of Heaven, the creation of Eve, the temptation and the expulsion from Eden. In the centre a huge wagon of hay, an old Netherlandish image of worldly goods that everyone grabs at, is pulled by demons while people of every rank, pope and emperor included, follow it or fight and kill to snatch handfuls; lovers make music on top, and Christ looks down from the sky. The right wing shows Hell, where demons build a tower. When the shutters are closed they show a wayfarer on a dangerous road. Bosch painted it in about 1512–1515, and the central panel is signed Jheronimus Bosch. Philip II of Spain acquired it in 1570 and sent it to El Escorial; later sold and split into three, its panels were reunited in the Museo del Prado in 1914, and it hangs there today.

This print reproduces the whole work, uncropped, from a high-resolution scan of the original. The original is in the public domain.

Where it works

A three-panel altarpiece, a golden haywagon between Eden and a burning Hell, swarming with small figures, for a study, library or hallway at 36×24 in black. A charcoal, warm stone or deep red wall; it pairs with The Garden of Earthly Delights.

Size. We'd hang this one at 36×24. Prints at 18×12, 24×16, 36×24 in — 18×12 for a shelf, desk or a gallery-wall grid; 24×16 above a console or sideboard; 36×24 as the statement piece above a sofa or headboard.

Framing. The gallery ground is part of the print, so frame it without a mat — black suits the deep tones of this period; natural wood lightens it.

Pairing. Pairs as a set of three with other famous painting prints (10% off three or more).

Is this the whole painting, or a crop?

The whole work, uncropped. The image fills the print at the painting's own proportions; nothing is trimmed to fit a frame.

Is The Haywain Triptych in the public domain?

Yes. Hieronymus Bosch (c. 1450–1516) died more than 70 years ago and the work was published before 1929, so the painting itself is public domain. This print is a reproduction made from a high-resolution scan of the original, which is held by Museo del Prado.

What is it printed on?

Heavyweight matte fine-art paper with pigment inks, made to order in 18×12, 24×16 and 36×24 inches; every size is also offered framed in black or natural wood, with plexiglass and no mat. Colours are matched to the scan, not brightened.

When was The Haywain Triptych painted, and in what medium?

The Haywain Triptych dates from c. 1512–1515 and was made in oil on oak panel; the original measures 147.1 × 212 cm.

What size works above a sofa or bed?

Across a three-seat sofa or a queen bed, 36×24 is the size that reads as one statement piece; 24×16 suits a narrower wall or a pair. For The Haywain Triptych we'd choose 36×24. It is a landscape print, wider than it is tall, at the painting's own proportions.
