This Pool of Fire and Brimstone Print is a reproduction of a dramatic 15th-century illumination from The Book of Our Lord’s Vineyard (1470), one of the most evocative depictions of Hell in medieval manuscript art. The scene shows a group of naked souls cast into a fiery pit, writhing as flames surround them, while horned demons preside over their suffering. At the edges, the gaping jaws of Hell threaten to consume the damned, a powerful visual metaphor for eternal punishment.

The Medieval Imagination of the Apocalypse

This powerful image reflects the late medieval fascination with the Last Judgment and the fate of sinners. The fiery pool is not just a place of torment but a space of divine justice — a warning to the viewer about the spiritual dangers of sin. The demons, both terrifying and strangely animated, represent the chaotic forces that drag the soul away from salvation.

Each piece is delivered unframed, giving you the freedom to choose a frame that best suits your space — whether it’s a study, a library, or an altar for esoteric practice.
