What specifically does the website of the The Metropolitan Museum of Art write about this work of art created by Gerard David? (© - by The Metropolitan Museum of Art - www.metmuseum.org)

Before leaving for Jerusalem to be crucified, Jesus says farewell to his mother—an ideal subject for meditation that would have been paired with the Madonna and Child to form a folding work that could be carried on a journey. Gerard David was also an illuminator of books, which explains this picture’s delicacy of execution. The frame is modern.
