About this work

This painted panel, titled Trinity and purgatory by Lucas Cranach the Elder and dated 1515, shows God the Father crowned and holding the crucified Christ, with a dove of the Holy Spirit above them. Flanking figures of the Virgin Mary and Saint John kneel and gesture in prayer among clusters of cherubs on blue clouds. Below, naked souls writhe and reach upward through licking flames.
