Das Jüngste Gericht

Deutsche Grafik 1250–1460, 1460

The image depicts a central figure seated in the sky with two kneeling figures below, as well as two partially submerged figures. The central figure has flowing hair, a bearded face, and wears a green and orange robe. They hold a lily and a cross, with visible ribs suggesting death or resurrection themes. The kneeling figures on a green hill have halos and wear robes, with one figure clean-shaven and in white attire, and the other bearded, wearing yellow and brown cloak. Two smaller figures in rectangular boxes appear to be rising with hands held in a prayer gesture. The background is beige with a hint of blue at the top, enclosed in a thin red border.
