"The Resurrection" is a dramatic black and white engraving by the French artist Gustave Doré, known for his illustrations for literary works. This specific engraving is from the Bible and depicts the moment when an angel tells the women who have come to see Jesus' tomb that he has risen. The scene is set in a dark cave with the angel, with large wings, sitting on a stone while pointing upwards. The women are seen entering the cave in the background. This image, like many of Doré's other works, is known for its dramatic composition and attention to detail.
