The Religious painting titled Last Judgment by Fra Angelico exemplifies Early renaissance artistry. This Panel depicts the dramatic second coming of Christ, illustrating both the saved ascending to heaven and the condemned facing judgment. Commissioned for the Camaldolese Order, it was originally positioned in Santa Maria degli Angeli and later moved to Florence's San Marco Museum. The artwork was created around 1425–1431, using Tempera on wood. Notably, it should not be confused with a similar work by Fra Angelico housed in Berlin’s Gemäldegalerie.
