Jerg Ratgeb's 1517 painting "Scenes from the Life of Prophet Elijah" depicts a scene from the Book of Kings, where Elijah is taken up to heaven in a whirlwind. The painting features several figures, including Elijah, God, and an angel, and is characterized by its vivid colors and dramatic composition. Ratgeb was a German artist active in the early 16th century, and his work is known for its blend of Gothic and Renaissance elements. This painting is a testament to his skill in depicting complex religious narratives with emotional intensity.
