The Resurrection is a 1450 ink by Ludwig of Ulm, held at National Gallery of Art.
The painting depicts a man standing on a roof, holding a staff and a flag. He is dressed in a red robe and has a halo around his head. The man is surrounded by three other figures, two of whom are kneeling and one who is sitting. The scene is set against a backdrop of a building with a sloping roof, and the overall atmosphere is one of reverence and devotion. The use of color and composition creates a sense of depth and emotion, drawing the viewer's eye to the central figure. This image is reminiscent of the works of Ludwig of Ulm, a master of the woodcut technique.
