The Resurrection of the Dead

Frühe Holzschnitte, ca. 1460/1470

This is a painting of angelic figures blowing trumpets above a group of people. The image features two winged figures depicted with stylized robes in colors such as green and orange. They hold large trumpets and are positioned in the upper part of the painting. Below them, a group of human-like figures appears in a state of attention or reverence. The composition has a naive and linear quality, with bold outlines and a simple color palette. The texture and color scheme suggest the piece is aged.
