Picturing a World

Going to heaven?

A friend who is working on a scholarly article asked whether I knew of any Christian images of humans ascending to heaven. I didn't, but a little poking around turned up this one. Weird! I suppose it illustrates moving from darkness into light. And I've read of people who experience a near-death experience as resembling a tunnel that leads to light beyond. All the same, what would one do with this narratively?!?
