The depiction of purgatory in the Smíškov gradual
Studničková, Milada
The study newly identifies the iconography of a painting at the beginning of the opening canto of the Mass for the Dead on fol. 335v in the utraquist Gradual of Smíškov (Wien, ÖNB, Musiksammlungen, Suppl. mus. 15.492) as the Rescue of Souls from Purgatory, and records potential sources of the composition. The illumination proves that moderate utraquism in the issue of Purgatory did not differ from the Catholic stance much at the end of the 15th century.
