Ecco la frase:
(...) il grande trittico di Omberto Aldobrandeschi, Oderisi da Gubbio e Provenzan Salvani (...)
Si sta parlando del canto X del Purgatorio, dove queste tre figure vengono presentate una dopo l'altra, quasi in successione. Come si puo' rendere l'idea suggerita da trittico? Triptych va bene?
Grazie a tutti

triptych
-a picture or relief carving on three panels, typically hinged together side by side and used as an altarpiece.
-a set of three associated artistic, literary, or musical works intended to be appreciated together.
In this case the three characters are depicted in a literary work so it should work.
HTH!
