Opwekking van Lazarus 1763

This etching, "Opwekking van Lazarus" (The Raising of Lazarus), created in 1763 by Johann Daniel Laurentz, depicts the biblical scene of Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead. The print features a dramatic composition with Jesus, clothed in flowing robes, raising his hand in a gesture of power as Lazarus emerges from the tomb. The figures surrounding the scene are rendered in a detailed and expressive style, adding to the emotional intensity of the moment. The artist's use of light and shadow creates a sense of drama and emphasizes the divine power of Christ. This etching is a testament to Laurentz's skill as a printmaker and his ability to capture the power and emotion of a religious scene.
