The Last Judgment is the tenth and final tapestry in one of the most important sets produced in Brussels in the late 15th century, The Redemption of Man series. Borrowing part of its composition from Rogier Van der Weyden, the highly spectacular Last Judgment is like a theatrical stage featuring a hundred or so characters. The author invites readers to discover the protagonists of the story and all those who played a part in the history of this set.
