The Resurrection

Deutsche Grafik 1483–1490, c. 1490

This is a painting of a figure standing in front of a tomb with soldiers around. The central figure is dressed in red robes, holding a staff with a flag, emerging from a rectangular stone-structured tomb. A soldier in a red helmet and golden-yellow attire is to the left, while another soldier in blue headgear and golden-yellow clothing is to the right. The sky is blue with streaks of white, and there is green foliage and grass in the background. The painting features bold colors and prominent outlines, reminiscent of medieval woodcut prints or early Renaissance art.
