The predella is the lower part of a polyptych altarpiece, developed horizontally, which serves as a support for the main panels. It can be composed of a single long panel, or of several elements. It is usually composed of several scenes that complete the main panel or panels of the polyptych altarpiece. Hypothetical reconstruction of Fra Angelico's San Marco altarpiece The use of a predella enriches a narrative, like a series of spotlights to unfold the subject. The narrative is fanned to all possibilities.
