This print showcases the "Harrowing of Hell or Christs descent into Limbo" engraving, created in 1512 by Albrecht Dürer. The image depicts a powerful scene from the Engraved Passion series, which was completed between 1507-12. The artwork portrays an archway leading to the depths of purgatory, where souls eagerly await their salvation.
