Grégoire Huret's "The Resurrection," from *The Passion of Christ* (1664) depicts a dramatic scene from the New Testament. The print shows Christ, newly risen from the tomb, ascending into heaven surrounded by a host of angels, while Roman soldiers, rendered in exquisite detail, struggle in fear and disbelief below. This Baroque-style print, held in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, exemplifies Huret's mastery of chiaroscuro and dramatic composition, leaving a powerful and lasting impression on the viewer.
