Here, Saint John gazes upward toward a vision of the woman of the apocalypse (traditionally interpreted as the Virgin Mary) in the top left corner. The artist\u2019s composition implies that John\u2019s vision was partially inspired by his isolation within nature\u2014portrayed in a wide expanse featuring dramatic peaks and fir trees, castles, farms, shepherds, and even a merchant\u2019s ship on a vast harbor.",
