Christ in the Sepulchre 1937

Eldora P. Lorenzini’s 1937 watercolor, “Christ in the Sepulchre”, depicts a detailed drawing of a coffin on a wheeled platform with measurements and specifications. The artist carefully rendered the woodgrain, giving a sense of realism to the artwork. The focus on technical details makes this piece an insightful example of American realism with a focus on historical accuracy. The “Christ in the Sepulchre” is a fascinating example of the use of visual language to depict a biblical event.
