The Psychology of Multi Panel Art

Multi panel art, also known as polyptychs or split panel art, have been around for centuries. Some of the most famous examples include Hieronymus Bosch’s “Garden of Earthly Delights” and Jan van Eyck’s “The Ghent Altarpiece.” These paintings are not only visually stunning, but they also tell complex stories that would not be possible to tell in a single panel.

One of the key psychological aspects of multi panel art is that it allows the artist to create a sense of suspense and anticipation. When the viewer sees a painting that is divided into multiple panels, they are naturally drawn to the gaps between the panels, wondering what lies on the other side. Also the view is left to his imagination in bridging the gaps adding new dimensions of interest. This creates a sense of mystery and intrigue, which can be very effective in storytelling.

Another psychological aspect of multi panel art is that it can be used to create a sense of movement and dynamism. When the panels are arranged in a sequence, the viewer’s eye is naturally drawn from one panel to the next, creating a sense of flow and energy. This can be used to great effect in depicting action scenes or stories that involve a lot of movement.

In the context of a painting depicting a group of underworld criminals visiting a fortune teller, multi panel art can be used to great effect to create a sense of suspense, anticipation, and mystery. Characters in the scene are split off from each other creating a sense of psychic disconnection between them, an unease or distrust.  This adds a sense of tension and excitement, which will keep the viewer engaged in the scene.
