triptych (art)
A triptych is a work of art (usually a panel painting) which is divided into three sections, or three carved panels which are hinged together and can be folded shut or displayed open.
The middle panel is typically the largest and it is flanked by two smaller related works, although there are triptychs of equal-sized panels.
