Hardly a book of the Bible exerts on people - even independently of their religious conviction - such a fascination as the revelation of John, in which the prophet John of Patmos describes the end times and the downfall of the world of God's hand, to which also The Last Judgment is one in which Jesus takes the good and God-fearing people into his new kingdom and hands over all others to the second, final death. Cranach's triptych does not only show the end times. The first or left panel depicts the fall of the angels and the expulsion from paradise. The other two represent the eruption of the demonic legions of Abaddon, freed by a fallen angel with a key to plague humanity until the final battle of Armageddon. © Meisterdrucke |
