 In the centre panel sits Christ in majesty, at his feet the earth and the other spheres of the heavens; surrounding him are successive orders of saints and angels. |
 To Christ's right (our left) kneels Mary.
|
 To Christ's left (our right) kneels
St. John the Baptist.

 In the centre panel is St Michael wearing armour of gold. He holds a balance with which to weigh supplicant souls (the heavier the better). In the golden pan to Michael's left (our right) sits a soul, but on the counterbalance to his right sits a red devil intent on falsifying the result. |
 In the panel second from our
left St. Peter, wearing a red gown, stands on a stairway admitting
successful souls to heaven.
|
 The three panels on our
right depict the process of damned souls to hell: in the leftmost of the
three panels can be seen a light-blue devil carrying off a recalcitrant
soul on piggy-back; in the next panel a hairy darker-blue devil transports
a soul in a wooden wheelbarrow; and in the rightmost panel in the bottom
three windows awaits Satan with the crescent-shaped head of a fish, a red
scarf around his neck, and a torso with a pair of eyes and a gaping
sharp-toothed mouth.
