Hieronymus Bosch's triptych "Last Judgement" (1486) depicts the Christian belief of the final judgement. The central panel shows Christ presiding over the separation of the saved and damned, with the left panel portraying paradise and the right panel depicting the torments of hell. Bosch’s meticulous detail and fantastical imagery depict a world filled with bizarre creatures and symbolic objects, giving viewers a glimpse into his unique and unsettling vision of the afterlife. This triptych, located in the Groeningemuseum in Bruges, Belgium, is considered one of Bosch's most iconic works.
