Was Memling's art considered too static by contemporaries?
Some might have perceived a certain stillness in my work, a deliberate avoidance of overt drama. However, this was not a lack of skill, but a conscious choice. I believed that true devotion and spiritual insight often arise from quiet contemplation, not from dramatic spectacle. The tranquil atmosphere and ordered composition are intended to guide the viewer toward a meditative state, allowing for profound spiritual experience.
