- Info created by Urs Graf (1516), scanned, uploaded and nominated by Gestumblindi. Very original pen drawing by Swiss artist Urs Graf (ca. 1485-1528). The Archangel Michael as the weigher of souls; a common theme, but depicted in an uncommon way - not the usual angelic face; instead striking features, sneering as he prepares to strike down the little demons trying to weigh down their scale. Praised as "aussergewöhnlich eingehend und fein" (extraordinarily detailed and fine) in the catalogue of 1926. Not quite sure whether my scan is good enough, but I think the resolution (3.8 MPx) should suffice...? -- Gestumblindi (talk) 19:05, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
