From the painting "The Fall of the rebellious angels" (1562), Musée des Beaux-Arts at Brussels.
Hovering and helmeted with a silly knot this keeper, holding a pitchfork, looks at archangel Michaël conquering the rebellious angels and condemning them to eternal suffering in hell, by which their once so heavenly appearances decay into terrifying reptile-like monsters.

THE FALL OF THE REBELLIOUS ANGELS Archangel Michaël is getting even with his rebellious colleague Lucifer and his followers. This story symbolises how the decay of the church and its clergy was brought to a stand still in the 16th century.
