"And the Sea Gave Up the Dead Which Were in It" is a painting created by Frederic Leighton before 1892, depicting a dramatic scene of resurrection from the sea. The painting features a central figure of a muscular man carrying a woman and child, while other figures rise from the turbulent waters. This powerful image is evocative of biblical themes and is characteristic of Leighton's Pre-Raphaelite style, known for its meticulous details and idealized figures. The use of rich, saturated colors and dramatic lighting adds to the emotional impact of the scene.
