About this work

You see three wooden panels hinged together: Christ raising Lazarus in the middle, a man and woman kneeling on the side panels. This painting was made as a memorial for a married couple. The miracle of Lazarus rising from the dead was meant to remind them—and us—of life after death. The couple’s faces are calm, almost hopeful. To see more works like this, visit the Rijksmuseum.
