The Dream of the Virgin

The Virgin lies asleep, possibly on her deathbed, while a companion at the foot of her bed reads to her. Above her Christ is crucified on the Tree of Life that rises from her womb; below are Adam and Eve being rescued from Limbo. These themes signify the Redemption of Mankind through Christ's suffering on the Cross.
