Dressed in resplendent bishop's robes adorned with a mitre and carrying a crozier, St Augustine exudes authority and wisdom. The contrast between his virtuous appearance and the sinister presence of the devil creates an intriguing visual narrative. As he stands before this malevolent figure presenting him with the Book of Vices, we witness an eternal struggle between good and evil. Pacher's use of vibrant colors adds depth to this medieval artwork, transporting us back to a time when faith played a significant role in society.
