False.
A triptych is a three-panel painting. The term "triptych" is derived from the Greek words "tri," meaning three, and "ptyche," meaning fold or panel. Triptychs typically consist of a central panel and two hinged side panels that can be folded closed. The three panels are often related thematically and contribute to a unified composition when the triptych is open. If there were four panels, it would be referred to as a quadriptych.
