"Verrijzenis" (Resurrection), a bronze plaquette by the Monogrammist IFP, dating from around 1500, portrays the resurrection of Christ in a dynamic and detailed scene. The central figure of Christ is prominently featured, rising from the tomb with a flag in his hand, while angels surround him in the sky above. The scene is further populated by numerous figures, including soldiers, onlookers, and a city in the distance. The high level of detail and the three-dimensionality achieved through the use of relief sculpture create a powerful and evocative depiction of this significant religious event. The small dimensions of the plaquette would have made it ideal for personal devotion or as a pendant.
