The Cleveland Museum of Art

Collection Online as of July 15, 2026

A vertically oriented woodcut in dense black-inked fine lines depicts the Last Judgment. Within a large central circle, Christ sits enthroned above the Archangel Michael, who holds a scale and spear. Figures with light skin tones surround them. Below, an angel blows a trumpet over a landscape. In the foreground, nude people emerge; those on our left stand with hands joined, while horned demons on the right push others toward flames.
