The Way of Salvation c. 1490

"The Way of Salvation" is a woodcut print created by an anonymous artist in the late 15th century. The image depicts a heart pierced by an arrow, with a series of virtues, such as "Faith," "Hope," and "Charity," represented as ribbons surrounding the heart. These virtues are presented as the path towards salvation, with the figure of Christ and angels positioned above. This devotional print was likely intended for personal use and illustrates the importance of Christian virtues in the path to salvation during the late 15th century.
