The Resurrection

Albrecht Dürer

Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white image of a man with long hair and a halo standing on top of short stairs surrounded by smoke and clouds. The man has his right arm raised and his left arm holding a staff. He is barefoot and wearing a cloth wrapped around his body. The stairs have three steps and are made of wood. There are several men on the ground around the stairs, some are wearing armor and helmets and appear to be sleeping or unconscious. There are clouds with cherubs in the top corners. The background has sunburst lines emanating from behind the man's head. The image is a detailed engraving with many lines and shading.
