Fra Angelico Last Judgement

Fra Angelico Last Judgement in the early Italian Renaissance collection of the Gemäldegalerie in Berlin

Fra Angelico’s, Das jüngste Gericht / The Last Judgment (1435) is a typical last judgment painting with the separation of the saved and the damned. Note how the woman in red trying to sneak in with the saved is pushed by an angel towards hell. Fra Angelico’s hell is typical Dante, quite different from that of Hieronymus Bosch and early German painters.
