The Three Dead and Three Quick

 

The medieval wall paintings in this section are allegories designed to promote the godly life over one of evil. Such paintings were also designed to show the fate that awaits anyone who does not heed the painting's warning.

 

The above painting is part of the "Three living and the three dead" at Raunds Northamptonshire.
