The Last Judgment, left wing, detail 3

Vienna

Hieronymus Bosch (Jeroen van Aken, ca 1450-1516), The Last Judgment, triptych (1504-08), left wing, detail.
Weltgerichtstriptychon
Akademie für bildenden Künste, Vienna

The fall of Adam and Eve is paralleled by the expulsion from Heaven of the Rebel Angels, who transformed into monsters are drawn to earth. Bosch depicts in this way the entrance of sin into the world and accounts for the necessity of the Last Judgment.
