Dating back to the 18th or 19th century, the piece depicts a nude figure of Christ emerging from his tomb, his powerful physique and resolute gaze conveying the divine power of resurrection. The work is held at The Art Institute of Chicago and demonstrates Michelangelo's mastery of anatomical detail and his profound understanding of the human form.
