Moving forward in time, The Angel of Revelation emerges in vibrant watercolors and pen & ink over graphite in 1805. This ethereal figure symbolizes heavenly guidance and unveils secrets hidden within this enigmatic book. The Apocalypse Tapestry or Apocalypse of Angers takes center stage multiple times throughout this visual journey, showcasing its intricate tapestries created between 1375-80. These masterpieces depict scenes filled with chaos, destruction, and salvation as prophesied in the Book of Revelation.

Here we witness a powerful image representing Christ's triumph over evil forces amidst a chaotic world. The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse follow suit with their own engraved depiction from 1511. These horsemen represent conquest, war, famine, and death - harbingers foretelling humanity's fate during these tumultuous times. Satan bound for a Thousand Years by Jean Duvet adds another layer to our exploration; it portrays Satan being restrained according to biblical prophecy found within this sacred text.
