Label TextThis drawing indicates the careful calculations and textual changes that Oakley made in order to place the inscriptions around each of the figures. Note, for instance, the lines and numbers interspersed throughout this study for the left-hand panel of the Archangel Michael. Even with such careful preparatory work, however, the drawing marks visible beneath the surface of the finished altarpiece indicate that Oakley made alterations in the design right up until completion.
