Damned souls being driven into the jaws of Hell and tortured by demons in striped clothes. One person is hanged (left) and a demon uses bellows to stoke a fire beneath in a cauldron in which people are being boiled. Detail of Doom (Last Judgment) mural on the north wall of the Early English nave, painted around 1340. Church of St Nicholas, Oddington, Gloucestershire, England.
