Christ at Emmaus, after Dürer 1495 - 1539

Marcantonio Raimondi's "Christ at Emmaus, after Dürer" is a 16th-century engraving that replicates a composition by the German master Albrecht Dürer. This print depicts the biblical story of Christ's appearance to two disciples after his resurrection, where he is recognized as the risen Lord during a meal. The scene is bathed in an otherworldly light emanating from Christ, highlighting the divine nature of the moment. This piece, a testament to Raimondi's skill as an engraver, is a fine example of the reproductive printmaking tradition. It now resides in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, and showcases the enduring impact of Dürer's artistic vision.
