Page "Luca Signorelli" Paragraph 10

The Cappella Nuova already contained two groups of images in the vaulting over the altar, the Judging Christ and the Prophets, by Fra Angelico, who had begun the murals fifty years earlier.

The works of Signorelli in the vaults and on the upper walls represent the events surrounding the Apocalypse and the Last Judgment.

The events of the Apocalypse fill the space which surrounds the entrance into the large chapel.
