Johann Sadeler I's 1579 engraving, *Laatste Oordeel: 'vandaar zal Hij komen oordelen de levenden en de doden',* depicts the Last Judgment scene in a detailed and dramatic fashion. The image is divided into two parts: above, Christ in glory appears surrounded by angels, and below, the dead are judged and separated into heaven and hell. This engraving, held in the Rijksmuseum, showcases Sadeler's mastery of the printmaking technique and reflects the strong religious beliefs of the time. The work is a compelling visual representation of the Christian concept of the Last Judgment, filled with intricate detail and symbolism that underscores the solemn event.
