"Judas Hangs Himself" is a miniature painting by the Limbourg brothers, active in the early 15th century. This illustration, likely from a manuscript, depicts Judas Iscariot hanging from a tree in a landscape setting, with a rocky hill, lush foliage, and a castle in the background. The artist's attention to detail and the use of vibrant colors are characteristic of the International Gothic style, which was prevalent in the late 14th and early 15th centuries. This type of artwork would have been appreciated by those who understood biblical stories and enjoyed the intricate details and craftsmanship of illuminated manuscripts.
