Chronicle

One engraving in black and white of the oldest stories, left to right: light breaking out of the dark waters, the angel driving the man and woman out of Eden, Cain striking Abel at the altars, the flood and the ark, the tower of Babel split by lightning, Jacob asleep under the ladder of angels, skeletons leading a king, a bishop, a knight and a peasant in the dance of death, and the last judgment with trumpets, open graves and the jaws of the beast. Across the sky, the archangel casts the rebel angels down.
