Open →Pale horses appear in Death and the Sun with different riders and surroundings. One carries an armoured rider; the other joins a child and red banner.
Open →Judgement’s winged figure holds a trumpet to the mouth, with a banner beneath. People below face upward, creating a visual relation of signal and response.

Open →Dark backgrounds and skies can draw attention to uncertainty, endings and a narrowed field of view.

Open →Purple can lend a scene solemnity and invite associations with spiritual meaning.
Open →Green leaves, grass and gardens make growth and the conditions of daily life visible.
