Closed altarpiece shows Nicolas Rolin, Chancellor of Burgundy,
and his wife Guigone de Salins, who founded the hospice in 1443.
In the center are St. Sebastian and St. Anthony with the Annunciation on top.
While the wife has a 'proper' white angel, the red angel of Nicolas looks quite devilish to me.
