About this work

Surrounded by saints and apostles, Christ thrones on the clouds. He is carried by a man, a lion, an ox, and an eagle, the symbols of the four evangelists. Around him in the clouds are people in adoration. Below on earth lie Love, Time, Fame, Chastity, and Death, defeated by Christ. Bottom right, the mouth of Hell. Below the image is an explanatory text in Latin. This print is part of an album.
