His work has a certain primitive stiffness of drawing, and his figures are often disproportionately long and angular, but his pictures are highly expressive, well designed and rich in colour, with especially good landscape backgrounds.
Bouts' earliest work is the Triptych of the Virgin's Life in the Prado (Madrid), dated to about 1445.
