This illustration, "Victoire de l'Agneau sur la Bête. L'image de la Bête, le Dragon et les Rois de la Terre. Apoc. XVII", created by the 11th-century artist Facundus, depicts a scene from the Book of Revelation. The top of the image is a night sky with a white lamb above, symbolizing Christ, and a cross above it. Below, there are various animals representing the "beast" and "dragon," who are defeated by the lamb and the cross. This illustration is a powerful example of medieval Christian art, conveying the triumph of good over evil, and is particularly relevant to biblical interpretation and understanding.
