How do you see Ezekiel's vision? (chapter 1)

[shepherdsword]

I have a few pictures to post that render some artistic expression. How do you see it? How does this vision compare with Revelation 4?
Rafael's conception:

William Blake's rendering:






Matthäus Merian the Elder:

 

[CoachedByChrist]

Thank you for sharing these beautiful renderings. Each one captures a little of the awe Ezekiel must have felt, the glory, the movement, and the mystery around God's throne. Revelation 4 echoes that same wonder so well. What a reminder that heaven is more magnificent than imagination can hold.

Cool to see them side by side. What stands out to me is that Ezekiel and John both end up falling on their faces, so the point seems less about getting the picture right and more about how big and holy God is. Ezekiel 1:28 says it was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the Lord, and he just fell facedown. Which of the three feels closest to you?

Although they are all good,the one where Ezekiel is eating the scroll is my fav.
