Christ Tells His Disciples of the Last Judgment

Christoph Murer

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of several figures inside an architectural setting. The central figure, an elderly man with a beard, is gesturing dramatically. Surrounding him are other figures in various seated and standing positions. The figures wear elaborate period clothing, and the background includes an arched doorway revealing more figures and structures. A dog is also depicted in the scene. The drawing style resembles a detailed woodcut or engraving, using fine lines and shading to show texture and depth.
