EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Anton Moller's masterpiece, "The Last Judgement" a tempera on panel painting that measures 155x125 cm. Housed in the Muzeum Narodowe in Gdansk, Poland, this artwork serves as an epitaph for town councillor Jacob Schmidt. What makes this piece unique is its departure from traditional styles and incorporation of Mannerist influences. Created between 1601-2, it depicts the biblical scene of the Last Judgement with remarkable attention to detail and symbolism. The composition centers around Archangel Michael holding a balance scale, weighing souls to determine their fate in heaven or hell. The artist skillfully portrays the contrasting emotions of hope and despair on the faces of sinners and those destined for paradise. "The Last Judgement" also features elements such as armor, Christ presiding over the judgement process, and a depiction of Artus Court - all contributing to its rich narrative. This painting was commissioned by the donor family Schmidt as a testament to their faith. As we gaze upon this stunning print captured by Bridgeman Images at eNational Museum in Gdansk, we are reminded of both our mortality and our eternal destiny. It serves as a powerful reminder that our actions have consequences beyond this earthly realm.
