Copper relief. Italy. 16th century.
"The Limbo of the Patriarchs"
This is the place where the souls of the just resided before the crucifixion, when they were rescued by the resurrected Christ. To the left of the centre, Jeremiah can be seen contemplating the sky, alongside Elijah with the holy scriptures, Moses with the tablets of the law and Noah holding the ark. There are kings ascending to heaven, to the “holy city,” being received by the Holy Trinity.
