Erweckung der Tabitha durch Petrus 1829

"Erweckung der Tabitha durch Petrus" (The Raising of Tabitha by Peter), a 1829 drawing by Joseph von Führich, depicts a scene from the biblical book of Acts, where the apostle Peter raises a woman named Tabitha from the dead. Führich captures the moment of resurrection with drama and emotion through the expressive figures and poses of the people surrounding Tabitha. The drawing's delicate lines and the use of light and shadow enhance the emotional intensity of the scene. This work is now part of the Städel Museum collection.
