The Resurrection

Simon Bening

National Gallery of Art

This is a painting of a religious figure surrounded by armored soldiers. The central figure has wounds on their body, wears a red cloak, and has a golden halo around their head. They hold a large cross staff with a banner displaying a red cross. Three armored soldiers are depicted in various postures. The background shows a landscape with hills and a distant town under a pastel-toned sky. The image is framed with an ornate golden border.
