First off I appologise for the misspellings, for some reason my software cut the last letters of of some of the words....

Hieronymus Bosch - The Seven Deadly Sins and the Four Last Things.

Two scrolls with Latin verses from the Book of Deuteronomy warn of the consequences of sin.
The first (32: 28-29) reads "For they are a nation void of counsel, neither is there any understanding in them," and the second: "O that they were wise, that they understood this, that they would consider their latter end!"

The central circle is larger than the others and looks like an eye.
In its pupil appears Christ, Man of Sorrow and the phrase "Beware, Beware, God sees!"

The Four Last Things:

Mortis- Death
Permaneo Censura- the Last Judgement
Gloria
Abyssus- Hell (there are several annotations in the "Hell" Section; They depict the punishments for the Seven Deadly Sins: For Gluttony a man is fed snakes and frogs, For Envy men are pulled apart by dogs, For Anger a man is being flayed 'alive', For Lust a man and a woman are perpetualy tormented in bed by demons, For Pride a man and woman are tormented by a demon with a mirror, For Sloth a man is held down near a furnace and beaten with either a hammer or a firebrand, and for Greed one man is roasted on a spit while the others a boiled in a cauldron while a demon spits coins at them.)




Its outer ring shows the seven deadly sins with genre scenes depicting the customary vices of that period.

Ira- Anger
Invida- Envy
Avarcia- Greed
Gula- Gluttony
Accidia- Sloth
Superbia- Pride
Luxuria- Lust

The end scene is the statue in
's-Hertogenbosch, Bosch's Birthplace.

Music is Psalm 103-

  • Your punshiments in hell for eaco of the 7 deadly sins are ALL wrong!

  • Thank you for your comments; these are not my

    "punishments in hell for each of the 7 deadly sins" This is a showcase (however brief) of one of the works by the Dutch Master Hieronymus Bosch namely; "The Seven Deadly Sins and the Four Last Things."

    Please feel comfortable to read the video description in the right hand panel for a more detailed synopsis.
