Created by the talented artist Dirck Bouts in the 15th century, this monumental artwork measures an impressive 324x182 cm and can be found at the Musees Royaux des Beaux-Arts de Belgique in Brussels, Belgium. In this powerful image, we witness Emperor Otto presiding over a trial by fire.

The glowing iron held by one of Otto's attendants symbolizes this test - if she emerges unharmed after gripping it, it would be seen as divine intervention and proof of her innocence.
