"The Resurrection" is a small-scale enamel painting by Jean II Pénicaud, executed between 1550 and 1599. This piece, now in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, depicts the moment of Christ's resurrection, with soldiers in the foreground reacting in astonishment and fear. The vibrant colors and detailed figures characterize Pénicaud's style. This devotional work demonstrates the artist's mastery of enamel painting, a challenging technique known for its intricate detail and luminous qualities.
