RING OF COSMOS

The ring hovers above the Earth and is considered the good order of the universe. On the horizon, center left are flying objects, and the fortress is abandoned. Below is a hellish scene comprised of the Grim Reaper, overseeing humanity, engaged in various acts of suffering and destruction.

The four attached floating, three-dimensional figures seem to offer some relief. The bottom portion is a combination of Hieronymus Bosch’s “The Garden of Earthly Delights”, 1490–1500, and “The Last Judgment”, 1482, plus my addition of compatible imagery, joining the two together. Carl Sagan lives!
