End of Days: Apocalyptic imagery and symbolism through the Ages
The apocalypse represents humanity’s enduring fear of destruction and the unknown. Rooted in religious texts, mythology, and cultural narratives, the apocalypse symbolizes the ultimate end - whether through divine judgment, natural catastrophe, or human-made disaster.

Apocalypse (English Version) – Camille Flammarion
The final book of the Bible, known both as The Book of Revelation and The Apocalypse of John, is a prophesy of the events that will occur at the end of time. This book pools the most famous pieces of art inspired by this theme, such as the Apocalypse drapery from Angers Cathedral, the carved tympanum of the Autun Cathedral, and the fresco in Albi Cathedral.
