The Resurrection of Lazarus
Venetian School
Late 17th century
Oil on canvas
Canvas size 91 x 70, frame 109 x 94
The work is in good condition with an old relining and an antique gilded frame.
The painting is very interesting and the scene described emotionally involves the viewer.
The sense of dismay and wonder can be exceptionally read on all the faces and in all the attitudes of the characters who animate the painting.
The gaze inevitably turns to the center of the work, attracted by a strong light and the movements of the protagonists.
Here, Christ is depicted in a solemn pose facing Lazarus, who is positioned at the bottom of the canvas in a dark, almost spectral area.
The author manages to give the sensation of a return to life directly from the Underworld.
It's a work of great character, dashed off with quick brushstrokes and with a great ability to create the illusion of movement.
Certificate of authenticity with detailed sheet of the work.
