Hel en hemel 1842 - 1900

"Hel en hemel" (Hell and Heaven) is a pencil drawing by Dutch artist Wilhelmus Petrus van Geldorp, created between 1842 and 1900. The artwork depicts a scene of heavenly judgment, featuring an individual seated at the center surrounded by angels and a demon. Van Geldorp's detailed drawing style is evident in the intricate details of the figures and their clothing, creating a sense of realism and drama. The composition emphasizes the contrast between heaven and hell, with angels representing purity and the demon symbolizing evil, reflecting the theological themes of judgment and salvation common in 19th-century art.
