judgement day

 It is believed in most religions that immediately upon death each soul undergoes a particular judgment. Depending upon the person’s actions in this life the person's soul goes to heaven or hell. A soul of a good person doing good deeds will always reach heaven, but the soul of a bad immoral person will remain in hell till eternity. Hans Memling (ca. 1433 - 11 August 1494, Bruges) was a Flemish painter. His painting Day of Judgement clearly depicts god in the centre taking decisions and the people on the left of the onlooker being led to heaven and souls on the right being led to hell.
