Angels and Demons Fight for a Dying Soul - Ars Moriendi Print

Ars Moriendi, meaning “The Art of Dying,” was a medieval Christian tradition about preparing for death and resisting temptation at the final moment of life. Illustrated versions often showed the dying person surrounded by angels and demons competing over the fate of the soul.

This 1471 illustration shows a dying man surrounded by supernatural figures. Demons gather below him while angels and holy figures appear above, turning the deathbed into a struggle between temptation, salvation, and damnation.
