The Last Judgment is a significant event in Christian eschatology, representing the final judgment of all souls by God. It is believed to occur at the end of the world, where individuals are judged based on their faith and actions during their lives. Those deemed righteous are rewarded with eternal life, while the unrighteous face punishment.
This concept is depicted in various forms of art, including the famous fresco by Michelangelo in the Sistine Chapel. The imagery often includes angels, saints, and the resurrection of the dead, illustrating the dramatic separation of the saved and the damned.
