EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Resurrection" by Simon Bening, a renowned Flemish artist from the 16th century. The artwork, created around 1530 during the Northern Renaissance period, beautifully captures the essence of Christianity and its central figure, Jesus Christ. In this miniature on vellum, we witness a scene filled with profound symbolism and emotion. Jesus Christ rises from his slumber in a state of divine resurrection. His hands are raised in blessing and gesture towards two surprised soldiers who stand guard nearby. Their astonishment is palpable as they witness this miraculous event unfold before their eyes. Bening's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke of color that adorns this masterpiece. The vibrant hues bring life to the characters depicted within, emphasizing their significance within religious history. "The Resurrection" serves as an exquisite example of Bening's exceptional talent for illuminating manuscripts and capturing spiritual narratives through artistry. This particular piece now resides at the National Gallery of Art in Washington DC, where it continues to inspire visitors with its timeless beauty. As we gaze upon this image print today, we are reminded of the enduring power of faith and how art can transcend time to connect us with centuries-old stories that still hold meaning in our lives today.
