The Last Judgment (detail-9) is a segment of the larger polyptych altarpiece created by the Early Netherlandish painter Rogier van der Weyden between 1446 and 1452. This monumental work, commissioned for the Hôtel-Dieu de Beaune, a hospital in Beaune, France, is one of van der Weyden's most significant contributions to religious art and exemplifies his mastery of detail, composition, and emotional expression.

The altarpiece, when fully opened, depicts the Last Judgment, a common theme in Christian art that illustrates the final judgment of souls by Christ at the end of time. The central panel features Christ as the Judge, flanked by the Virgin Mary and John the Baptist, with angels and apostles surrounding them. Below, the dead rise from their graves, and the saved are separated from the damned.

Detail-9 specifically focuses on a portion of this extensive narrative, capturing a moment of intense drama and divine intervention. Van der Weyden's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the intricate rendering of figures, their expressions, and the surrounding elements. The figures are depicted with a remarkable sense of realism, their emotions vividly conveyed through delicate brushwork and a keen understanding of human anatomy.

The use of color and light in this detail is particularly noteworthy. Van der Weyden employs a rich palette to enhance the spiritual and emotional impact of the scene. The interplay of light and shadow not only adds depth and dimension but also serves to highlight the divine presence and the stark contrast between salvation and damnation.

The Last Judgment altarpiece, including detail-9, reflects the theological concerns and artistic innovations of the 15th century. It serves as a powerful visual sermon, intended to inspire piety and contemplation among the viewers, particularly the patients and staff of the hospital for which it was created. Van der Weyden's work remains a testament to his skill and his ability to convey complex religious themes with clarity and emotional resonance.
