Israhel van Meckenem
German, 1445-1503
The Resurrection, n.d.
Engraving with hand-coloring

Only one other impression of this engraving is known to exist. This extremely rare object is one of the earliest original prints in the Thrivent Art Collection. Enrobed in a rich red robe, Christ emerges from a blue sarcophagus. The brown ink and hand-applied coloring enliven this impression and make it particularly unique. Likely an object of personal devotion, this image of Christ’s triumph over death would have served as a reminder, to the believer who held it in their hand, that eternal life is the promise of their faith in him.
