Christ's descent into Limbo,14th century
Christ's descent into Limbo. Jesus Christ (left) bearing a flag and walking over a fallen door and a devil holding a key to bring salvation to those in Limbo. The Roman Catholic Church defined Limbo as being on the edge of Hell,indicated by the adjacent devils. In this region of the afterlife were unbaptised infants and those who lived virtuously before the birth of Christ. Unlike those in hell they suffered no pain. The medieval meaning of 'limbo' is from the Latin 'limbus' (edge). The modern meaning of 'limbo' is a state of oblivion,confinement or transition. This artwork is part of a 14th century fresco by Andrea di Bonaiuto in the Spanish Chapel of the Santa Maria Novella church,Florence,Italy
