1510
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
The Small Passion: The Resurrection is a 1510 by Albrecht Dürer, a Renaissance work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
The painting depicts a scene with a central figure, likely Jesus Christ, standing in the middle. He is surrounded by a halo and is dressed in a long robe, holding a cloth in his left hand. To his right, a group of soldiers are shown, some of whom are asleep or looking away. In the background, a landscape with trees and a cloudy sky can be seen. The painting's style is characteristic of the Renaissance period, with detailed lines and shading that create a sense of depth and volume. The use of chiaroscuro, a technique that emphasizes contrasts between light and dark, adds to the dramatic effect of the scene. This painting is part of Albrecht Dürer's series, The Small Passion, and is held at The Cleveland Museum of Art.
