Appearance of the Son of Man

1420s

Santa Caterina, Galatina (Apulia)

Looking up on entering the church, the viewer is confronted with the figure of the Son of Man directly above him. This figure is not included in the narrative sequence of the registers but rather deployed for its ornamental value.
