The Altarpiece of Saint Vincent, particularly the panel of the Knights, is a seminal work attributed to the Portuguese painter Nuno Gonçalves, dating back to the 1460s. This altarpiece is one of the most significant examples of Portuguese Gothic art and is renowned for its intricate detail and historical importance. Nuno Gonçalves, who served as the court painter for King Afonso V of Portugal, is celebrated for his ability to capture the essence of his subjects with remarkable realism and emotional depth.

The panel of the Knights is one of the six panels that make up the larger altarpiece, which was originally created for the Monastery of Saint Vincent Outside the Walls (São Vicente de Fora) in Lisbon. This particular panel is distinguished by its depiction of a group of knights, believed to be members of the Portuguese nobility, gathered in a solemn and reverent assembly. The figures are portrayed with meticulous attention to their attire, armor, and heraldic symbols, reflecting the social hierarchy and chivalric ideals of the time.

The composition of the panel is notable for its balanced arrangement and the use of perspective, which was innovative for its time. Gonçalves employs a rich color palette and detailed textures to bring the scene to life, creating a sense of depth and realism that draws the viewer into the historical moment. The expressions and postures of the knights convey a sense of piety and solemnity, underscoring the religious significance of the altarpiece.

The Altarpiece of Saint Vincent, including the panel of the Knights, is housed in the National Museum of Ancient Art (Museu Nacional de Arte Antiga) in Lisbon. It remains a vital piece of Portugal's cultural heritage, offering insights into the artistic, social, and religious milieu of the 15th century. The work continues to be studied and admired for its artistic excellence and historical value, representing a pinnacle of medieval Portuguese art.
