- Last_Judgment_(van_der_Weyden) abstract "The Last Judgment (sometimes the Beaune altarpiece) is a large polyptych altarpiece painted c. 1445–50 by the Early Flemish artist Rogier van der Weyden. It was executed in oil on oak panel, though parts have been transferred to canvas. The altarpiece was commissioned for the Hospices de Beaune in 1443 by Nicolas Rolin, Chancellor of the Duchy of Burgundy, and his second wife Guigone de Salins, who is buried in front of the altarpiece's original location. The polyptych is one of van der Weyden's most ambitious works, equal to his Prado Deposition, Escorial Crucifixion Diptych and his lost Justice of Trajan and Herkinbald. It remains in the hospice today, although not in its original positioning; it was moved in the 20th century to shield it from light and better protect it from the near 300,000 visitors it receives annuallyThe Last Judgment is in poor condition. It has suffered from extensive paint loss, wearing and darkening of colours, and accumulated dirt. In addition a heavy layer of over-paint was applied during restoration. The outer panels have been cut apart so both sides could be shown simultaneously. Traditionally the inner wings would only be displayed on selected Sundays or church holidays.It retains some of its original frames. The Last Judgment comprises 15 panels; nine inner and five outer views. The inner panels are arranged in two registers. The large central panel spans both and shows Christ seated in Judgement, seated on a rainbow with his feet resting on a golden globe. Below him the Archangel Michael holds a scale as he weighs souls. The panel on Christ's far right show the gates of heaven, that to his far left the entrance to hell. The panels of the lower register form a continuous landscape, with figures moving from the central panel to their final destination after their judgement.".
