Study for the Resurrection c. 1574

This drawing by Italian artist Santi di Tito, created around 1574, is a study for a larger painting depicting the Resurrection of Christ. It is a preliminary sketch, showcasing the artist's initial ideas and compositions. The drawing uses delicate lines to depict a scene of chaos and wonder, with the resurrected Christ rising from a tomb, surrounded by figures who react with awe and fear. Di Tito's drawing, now housed at the Art Institute of Chicago, provides an intimate glimpse into the creative process of this Renaissance master.
