Christ Appearing to Saint Thomas

Deutsche Grafik 1250–1460, 1460/1480

The artwork depicts two figures, with one standing and the other kneeling. The standing figure is partially clothed, showing a bare torso with visible wounds, and holds a staff topped with a cross, while having a halo around the head. The kneeling figure is positioned to the right, reaching out to touch the standing figure's side, and also has a halo. Both figures have long hair and beards. The kneeling figure is dressed in a long robe. Surrounding them is an ornate border with decorative patterns and an inscription in a scroll-like design above their heads. The background is simple, showing a green base.
