Just as other murals in the church suggest the influence of Johann Friedrich Overbeck, this scene demonstrates his knowledge of another German painter of the first half of the nineteenth century: the figure of Christ closely matches the one by Peter Cornelius (1783-1867) in his fresco of the Last Judgement in the Ludwigskirche, Munich.
