Le Christ sortant du tombeau 1850 - 1883

"Le Christ sortant du tombeau" (Christ Emerging from the Tomb), a dramatic drawing created between 1850 and 1883 by Gustave Doré, depicts a powerful moment of resurrection. The scene showcases Christ emerging from his tomb, clothed in white, as three figures react in awe. The dramatic use of light and shadow, the swirling clouds, and the distant landscape emphasize the divine presence. The work is a testament to Doré's artistic mastery and serves as a powerful testament to the Christian narrative of resurrection.
