This is an engraved copy of *The Little Passion*, a series of woodcuts by Albrecht Dürer, dating between 1485 and 1699. It depicts a scene from the Passion of Christ, specifically the moment when Christ raises Lazarus from the dead. The scene is set in a landscape with a small town in the background. The use of intricate details and fine lines, characteristic of Dürer’s engravings, is evident in the depiction of the figures’ clothing, the landscape and the architectural features.
