Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The Last Judgement

1450–75
England, possibly Lincolnshire
Oak, carved

This small carved panel shows the Last Judgement, with Christ seated on a rainbow arch, beside figures that probably represent prophets or saints. Below are trumpeting angels signalling judgement on humans being raised to Heaven (on the left) or damned to Hell (on the right). The panel (which was probably painted originally) would have decorated an English church. It could have been one of a series intended to be hung on the back of a set of choirstalls, or from a rood screen.
