A multi-panel artwork depicting Christ, Mary, saints, angels, and figures in heavenly and hellish scenes
Detailed Description
The artwork is a large, multi-panel composition, vertically oriented and framed in gold. It is composed of three main vertical sections, each subdivided into multiple horizontal registers. The central panel features a top register depicting a figure on a cross, flanked by other figures, with a ladder. Above this, two angels are visible. The second register shows an enthroned central figure, flanked by two other figures, seated on a golden throne against a dark blue, star-filled background. Below them, a smaller scene depicts two figures. The third register presents a dynamic scene of numerous angels in red robes, some with golden halos, descending from a dark blue, star-filled sky. The bottom register of the central panel illustrates a fiery pit filled with dark, grotesque figures and numerous human-like figures. The left panel's top register shows an angel with green wings, holding a scroll, positioned above a golden arch. Two smaller angels are above this. Below the arch, five horizontal rows of standing figures are depicted, each row containing multiple individuals, likely saints. They wear various colored robes including red, blue, green, brown, and white, and have golden halos, all facing towards the center of the composition. The right panel mirrors the left in structure. Its top register features a scene with multiple figures, including an angel and a kneeling figure, above a golden arch, with two angels above. Below the arch, five horizontal rows of standing figures are arranged, similar to the left panel. These figures also wear diverse colored robes and golden halos, facing towards the center. The entire composition is richly adorned with gold leaf, particularly in the architectural details and halos.
