This print showcases a mesmerizing detail from "The Last Judgement" painted by Hans Memling in 1473. The original oil on panel masterpiece, housed at the Muzeum Narodowe in Gdansk, Poland, is a profound representation of divine justice and human fate. In this particular section of the painting, we witness an intense scene where souls are being judged for their earthly actions.
