Son of A Wheelbarrow to Hell

Posted on August 10, 2017 by Marco Graziosi

From Yale University, Beinecke Library MS 404, Rothschild Canticles, 169v (thanks to Francois Soyer).

Previous instalments: The Natural History of the Wheelbarrow, A Wheelbarrow to Hell.

Rather than devils carrying souls to hell, the scene seems to represent a (good?) soul driving back a devil; or perhaps the weight of sin all people must carry?
