The Garden of Earthly Delight (Ca. 1504) by Hieronymus Bosch (ca. 1450-1516)
A tryptych (plus shutters)
Earthly-Delight-L.jpg Left Wing "The earthly paradise" 404x1010
Earthly-Delight-M.jpg Middle "Ecclesia's paradise" 720x784
Earthly-Delight-R.jpg Right Wing "Hell" 422x1015
Earthly-Delight-S.jpg The shutters which depict the third day of
creation 717x779
As one of Bosch's most memorable images is the right wing of this
tryptych "Hell", and as he painted very small on big panels, I have included
a very big version of delightr.jpg. You can see in detail all of the
tortured souls and exactly what is being done to them. (NB In reference
to astrological alignments at the time this was painted, a lot of the
instruments of torture are also musical instruments.)
