Abstract

This article is devoted to various interpretations of the motive of punishment of sinners at the Last Judgment in the Romanesque sculpture. Four examples were chosen: the tympanums of the Cathedral of Saint-Lazare in Autun and the Basilica of Sainte-Foy in Conques, the mosaic of the Church of the Ascension of Mary on the island of Torcello and the capitals of the church of Saint-Pierre in Chauvigny. The motive is realized in a wide range of artistic solutions - from symbolism to specifics, from metaphor to fiction.
