The artwork is titled “Vision of the Last Days,” created by Hildegard of Bingen. It belongs to the Romanesque art movement and falls under the genre of miniature.
The artwork contains various intricate elements framed by an ornate border featuring floral motifs. In the upper left section, there are animal figures, including lions and other creatures, seemingly in a battle or confrontation. Adjacent to this, a figure holding a structure symbolic of a fortress is positioned above a diagonal path. In the central portion, a crowned figure with raised arms, adorned in an intricate robe, stands prominently, flanked by smaller individuals who appear distressed. To the right of this central figure, a larger menacing creature looms, with exaggerated features and a fiery gaze, adding to the ominous atmosphere of the scene. The meticulous detailing and vivid narrative encapsulated in this miniature reflect the eschatological themes characteristic of Hildegard of Bingen’s visionary works.
