The Last Judgment (detail-17) 1446-52 is a fragment of a larger polyptych created by the renowned Early Netherlandish painter Rogier van der Weyden. Van der Weyden, born in Tournai around 1399/1400, is celebrated for his highly detailed and emotionally evocative religious works, which have left a significant mark on the art of the Northern Renaissance. The Last Judgment polyptych, from which this detail is taken, was commissioned for the Hôtel-Dieu in Beaune, France, a hospital founded by Nicolas Rolin, Chancellor to the Duke of Burgundy, and his wife Guigone de Salins.

The polyptych originally consisted of nine panels, with the central panel depicting Christ as the Judge of the World, flanked by the Virgin Mary and John the Baptist, and surrounded by the Apostles. The side panels illustrate scenes of the saved ascending to Heaven and the damned being cast into Hell, with angels and devils actively participating in the judgment process. The intricate details and the vivid portrayal of human emotions in these panels are characteristic of van der Weyden's style, which combines meticulous attention to detail with a profound sense of spirituality and drama.

Detail-17 specifically captures a segment of this grand narrative, showcasing van der Weyden's masterful use of color, light, and composition to convey the theological themes of salvation and damnation. The figures in this detail are rendered with remarkable precision, their expressions and gestures contributing to the overall narrative of divine judgment. The artist's skillful manipulation of oil paint allows for a rich interplay of textures and hues, enhancing the visual impact of the scene.

The Last Judgment polyptych, including detail-17, not only serves as a testament to van der Weyden's artistic genius but also reflects the religious fervor and the socio-political context of 15th-century Burgundy. The work remains an important piece of art historical study, offering insights into the devotional practices and artistic conventions of the period.
