The development of the iconography of Judgment in the Catholic and Ortodox religion

The topic of my thesis is the development of the iconography of Judgment, and since its inception after the acceptance of such ideas, both Eastern and Western Churches. The beginnings of Judgment display back to the IV. century (the first being displayed as separate sheep from the goats). The full composition appears from VIII. century in Byzantium and since then the idea spread in the system murals both in Byzantium and Russia and the West. In my diploma thesis I focused on the development of the iconography of this subject and especially in his later transformation caused by the cultural traditions of east and west and the mentality and religion but Christian, but as distinct peoples. The aim of my work will be compared and a more detailed analysis of the iconography of Judgment displayed by Catholics and Orthodox.
