This essay examines the oldest extant panel painting from Amiens cathedral’s Marian poetry confraternity of . Known as the , the panel depicts Mary dressed as an Old Testament high priest, investing her son with the Levitical lineage that she, in turn, received from her mother. The painting uses typology, allegory, liturgy, and the hagiography of Saint Anne to create a ‘visual poem’ that was meant to inspire one of the confraternity’s annual competitions. As such, the panel elucidates the verse written by the confraternity master and that featured as the refrain in the contestants’ compositions. This appears on a banderole near the confraternity master, who kneels in the lower right corner of the painting: ‘Worthy vestment for the sovereign priest.’
