A wardrobe containing panels from a similar quality can be found in the Meldorfer Museum at Dithmarschen. This wardrobe was constructed for the governor Marcus Swyn for the Swynschen Pesel. The panels represent mercy.
Upper left: The prodigal son in sin,
Upper right: Abraham, having poor Lazarus on his lap and watching the rich man in the underworld.
Lower left: The rich man en poor Lazarus facing the gate with evangelical figures
Lower right: Laying out Jesus in the grave of Josef of Arimentea with figures belonging to that scene. From left to right: Josef of Arimentea, Maria of Magdala, Nicodemus, Mary the mother of Jesus.
Special of this expression is the security of the laying out of Jesus. Something seen in the protestant world after Luther. In the catholic iconography this scene is more elaborated, where a fully stretched Jesus is seen.
