EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 17th century oil painting, titled "The Raising of Lazarus," is a masterpiece created by the renowned Italian artist Ippolito Scarsellino, also known as Ippolito Scarsella or Ippolito Scarsellino da Ferrara. The painting depicts a biblical scene from the Gospel of John (11:38-44), where Jesus (Christ Antiphonetes) raises Lazarus from the dead. The miraculous event is captured in vivid detail, with Christ reaching out to touch Lazarus' chest as he emerges from his tomb, surrounded by a crowd of amazed onlookers, including Lazarus' sisters, Mary and Martha. This artwork is a prime example of the Mannerist style, popular during the 16th and 17th centuries in Italy. The use of color and contrast, as well as the elongated figures and dynamic poses, are characteristic of this artistic movement. The painting is currently on display at the Nationalmuseum in Sweden, showcasing the rich cultural heritage of the arts and the enduring influence of Christianity on European art history. The Raising of Lazarus is a powerful and evocative image, reminding us of the miraculous power of Jesus and the profound impact of the New Testament on Western civilization. This painting invites us to reflect on the deeper spiritual and emotional dimensions of the human experience, as well as the historical significance of the biblical narrative.
