----------------------------Original message----------------------------
Hello ARLIS members - Thank you, Diana Cooper, for reminding to thank everyone
who replied to my question about a medieval representation of world
view/Christian hierarchy requested by a patron.

After a lot of looking, the patron (who seems to have been to
every art library in Philadelphia) was satisfied with a "Last Judgement"
by Rogier van der Weyden.  Diana's suggestion of the Robert Hughes book,
"Heaven and Hell in Western Art," even has a section on "The Heavenly
Hierarchy" p. 142 and looks good, too.

Thanks, everyone.
