Location
editI saw this Triptych today (2nd June 2007)at the Musee Royaux Des Beaux-Arts in Brussels. there was no indication that it was anything other than the original. Does anybody know if this was transferred from Lisbon or is in fact a copy? 62.59.251.178 21:34, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
I saw this at the Barnes Collection... are there multiple copies? gren グレン ? 05:39, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
Philadelphia: In preparation for its move to downtown Philadelphia, the Barnes Foundation has conducted a survey of its collections, resulting in many reattributions. Larry Silver has been in charge of Northern European masters. According to him, Bosch’s Temptation of St. Anthony is a sixteenth-century copy of part of the original, and Rubens’s Holy Family with St. John and an Angel is by his workshop. — Museum News
That's a quote about it I believe. gren グレン ? 05:44, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
This site says even more. I will incorporate it I believe. gren グレン ? 05:45, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
The location of this tryptich is and has been for several years the Royal Museum of Beaux-Arts, Brussels, Belgium. I saw it there yesterday, Saturday 30 May 2009. It is not a copy. Wikipedia is in error in suggesting it is in Lisbon, Portugal. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.111.77.75 (talk) 17:12, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
gallery
editI added a gallery. The article says it's broadly about "The temptation of St. Anthony in visual arts," but gives relatively few examples. More should be discussed in the article, including how changing religious beliefs and their relation to aesthetics are reflected over time. I hope this is an OK start.

A shame the gallery is gone...
editIt's too bad that someone deleted the small gallery of images not long ago. It was a good beginning, Cynwolf, and the article is again now begging for one; I may try to re-assemble one later but have no time now and hope someone beats me to it. (In the meantime, I've replaced the image of the closed wings of the Bosch triptych with the classic image by Grünewald that was the model for Dalí and others. It appears the Bosch was left behind after the large image of the open triptych got deleted, but the deleter failed to realize that the closed doors depict not the temptations of S. A. but the arrest of Christ and Christ bearing the cross...so not very relevant to ol' Anthony. In any case, as an "iconic" image, Grünewald is better and less confusing than the Bosch.) Cheers!

Pieter Coecke van Aelst
editPieter Coecke van Aelst has a Wikipedia page which even includes a picture of his Temptation of Saint Anthony. Shouldn't this be listed on this page as well?72.233.179.31 (talk) 19:50, 26 February 2016 (UTC)
