A medieval manuscript, "Opening the Fourth Seal; The Fourth Horseman," by an unknown artist, London, about 1255-60, is displayed at the "Heaven, Hell and Dying Well: Images of Death in the Middle Ages" exhibit at The Getty Museum in Los Angeles. The show goes back to the 15th century to unearth some of the mankind's earliest, most colorful images of life's final chapter. In Chapter 6 of the Apocalypse, Saint John the Evangelist described his vision of the four horsemen who herald the coming of the Last Judgment. AP photo by Damian Dovarganes
