EDITORS COMMENTS
by Gerard Seghers is a magnificent oil painting that captures the profound moment of Jesus rising from the dead. This monumental artwork, measuring 324x240 cm, can be found in the Louvre Museum in Paris, France. In this Northern Renaissance masterpiece, Seghers skillfully portrays the divine event with meticulous attention to detail. The soldier stands guard at the entrance of an empty tomb while gazing up at Christ's radiant figure ascending towards heaven. A halo encircles his head as a symbol of his divinity and holiness. The composition is enriched with various symbolic elements: a flag bearing a cross represents victory over death; a sword signifies spiritual warfare against evil; cherubim and seraphim surround Jesus as celestial beings; putti and angels rejoice in his resurrection. As light beams down from above, it illuminates every corner of the canvas, emphasizing the triumph over darkness brought by Christ's resurrection. His cloak billows majestically behind him like a banner proclaiming salvation for all mankind. Seghers' attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke - from intricately painted armor and helmets to delicate folds in shrouds and cloths. The artist's mastery brings life to this sacred scene and invites viewers to reflect on their own faith journey. This print captures all these remarkable details faithfully, allowing art enthusiasts worldwide to appreciate Seghers' artistic genius even if they cannot witness it firsthand at the
