恩德(Ende)高清作品《深渊天使与地狱蝗虫》

作品名：深渊天使与地狱蝗虫

艺术家：恩德

年代：c.975

风格：莫札拉布

类型：微型

这张全套照片在顶部显示了深渊的天使——在传说中的“EC LOCVSTE VBI ANGELVS P[ER]DICTIONI INPERAT EAS”下面——Abbadon或Appolion，意思是破坏者但没有负面的含义，伸出一个灵气，他的翅膀伸展，抓住一个小盾牌和挥舞。用一个完全不同的方式描绘了一个地狱蝗虫的矛。蝗虫现在出现了一种人畜混交的外观，不完全符合Stosia中的描述。它有一个圆形的金冠，马的耳朵和头上的角；它的上半个脸是动物（马）而不是人类。这个具有威胁性的生物的轮廓是马的身体，虽然有猫爪和爪子，覆盖着鬃毛或发髻，脖子上有造型金属网，让人想起铁箍。最后，它的特征是连接尾巴，类似于前面的插图，它以一种不自然的姿势撞到一个裸体男人的光晕头部，但是它的眼睛睁开，因此会犯与以前相同的错误。在插图的长度上描绘了另外三个相似的怪物，它们的身体颜色彼此不同，还有先前的蝗虫，它们折磨着另外三个人——那些没有上帝标志的人——而那些有标志的人被省略了。其中两个怪物位于底部彼此相对，而位于对开本中间的怪物则独自一人，旁边是一个传说，上面写着“VBI LOCVSTE LEDVNT/OMINES”。

Title:The angel of the abyss and the infernal locusts

artist:Ende

Date:c.975

Style:Mozarabic

Genre:miniature

This full-folio image shows, at the top, the angel of the abyss –beneath the legend “EC LOCVSTE VBI ANGELVS P[ER]DICTIONI INPERAT EAS”– Abbadon or Appolion, meaning destroyer but with no negative connotation, with a nimbus and his wings outstretched, clutching a small shield and brandishing a spear at one of the infernal locusts depicted in a totally different way from those appearing in the previous illustration. The locust now has the appearance of an anthropozoomorphic hybrid that does not abide exactly by the description in the storia. It has a circular, golden crown, horse’s ears and horns on its head; and the top half of its face is animal (equine) rather than human. The threatening creature is shown in profile with a horse’s body, albeit with feline paws and claws, covered in a mane or locks of hair, and a neck of stylised metal mesh reminiscent of iron cuirasses. Finally, it features a jointed tail similar to the one in the previous illustration which it drives into the haloed head of a naked man in an unnatural pose, but whose eyes are open thereby incurring in the same mistake as before. Depicted the length of the illustration are another three similar monsters, with bodies coloured differently from each other and the previous locust, tormenting another three men – those not marked with God’s sign – whilst the men with the sign are omitted. Two of these monsters are situated opposite each other in the bottom part and the one in the middle of the folio is alone, next to a legend reading “VBI LOCVSTE LEDVNT/OMINES”.
