The Seven Angels with Trumpets and the Angel with the Censer

The upper register features seven angels in profile, wearing alternating yellow, purple, and green robes, each blowing a trumpet toward the left. Below, an angel with large wings stands before a draped, box-like altar, pouring incense from a golden censer from which embers fall. To the right, a bearded figure, likely John the Evangelist, stands with his hand raised in gesture while holding a book. The background is a solid, dark, earthy tone, and the figures stand on stylized, undulating ground.

This illumination is derived from the Book of Revelation (Apocalypse of John), specifically depicting the events following the opening of the seventh seal. It reflects the Ottonian artistic tradition, closely associated with the Imperial scriptoria of the Holy Roman Empire.
