Description
The traditional scene is modeled after Christian imagery of the Resurrection and Last Judgment. An angel is depicted among the clouds blowing a great trumpet, from which hangs the flag of St. George, which references the 1 Corinthians 15.[3] A group of resurrected people (man, woman, and child) of sallow complexion stand, arms spread, looking up at the angel in awe. The Sleeping Dead are emerging from crypts or graves, calling back to the Revelation 20, where the sea gives up its dead.[4] There are snow-covered mountains in the background indicating a winter theme, similar to The Hermit, as a symbolical ending.
Alternative decks
