Title:Laon; Last Judgment; right archivolts of the right portal, west facade (Last Judgment Portal)
Notes:Archivolts depict angels sounding their trumpets, carrying babies to Abraham's bosom, and giving out crowns to the blessed. On topmost arch Christ calls from temple door to virtuous virgins with lighted lamps, while foolish virgins, with their lamps spilled, find temple door shut. [Martinet 6-7]
