Triptych "The Last Judgment" by Hans Memling.

The triptych shows a vision of the Day of Judgment described in the Book of Revelation. John. In the center of the composition is Christ - the Judge sitting on a rainbow, whose feet rest on a golden ball symbolizing the universe. He is surrounded by twelve apostles who play the role of jurors of the Heavenly Tribunal.
