專家說明

Probably the earliest and the most crowded composition from the Apocalypse, this features many details derived from the illustrations of the Quentell Bible printed in Cologne in 1480, and the eagle flying down the centre, crying 'woe', is borrowed from the Grüninger Bible.
When the Lamb opened the seventh seal, the silence dominated Heaven for half an hour. The woodcut depicts the vision of God distributing the trumpets to the angels. The first four trumpet calls sound in the centre over a landscape beset by catastrophe: a star falls on the left, the sea and the earth are burning.
