The Stoning of Saint Stephen (detail)
Luca Signorelli
oil on panel
first decade, 16th century
Every inch of this chapel was elaborately decorated with a cycle of frescoes of the last judgment. This detail shows the resurrection of the flesh. The frescoes are surprisingly modern in some aspects (figures breaking out of frame, realistic bodies, high color). It's kind of overwhelming to stand in the space and look at the hundreds of figures depicted in battle, prayer, joy, lament, and so on.
If you want to see an ultra high definition of the frescoes, go to this website:
