"Fragment with the Transfiguration of Christ (Resurrection)" is a painting by the Dutch artist Jan Joest, created around 1515-1520. It features a standing figure of Christ in a white robe, with his right hand raised in blessing and his left hand holding a book. Christ is surrounded by a halo of light, and the background features clouds and a landscape. This artwork is a devotional piece, reflecting the artistic sensibilities of the Northern Renaissance period.
