The Glory of Martyrs and the Pure; Les Visions du chevalier Tondal, 1475. Additional Info:After leaving the faithfully married, Tondal's soul and the angel come upon a wall made of gold, reserved for martyrs and those "who crucified their flesh against the vices and lusts of the world." Sitting upon sumptuous thrones of gold and silk, richly dressed men and women sing "Alleluia." Each wears a crown, a sign of victory over sin.
