EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases the biblical scene of The Raising of Lazarus, as depicted in Ludolphus de Saxonia's Leven Christi (The Life of Christ), printed in 1512. The woodcut, plate 56 from the collection Woodcuts from Books of the XVI Century, was assembled into a portfolio in 1937 by Max Geisberg. Ludolphus de Saxonia, also known as Ludolph the Carthusian, was a German monk and artist, renowned for his intricate and detailed woodcut illustrations. This particular work, taken from the New Testament of the Bible, specifically the Book of John, depicts Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead. The miraculous event is captured in a dramatic and poignant manner, with Jesus reaching out to Lazarus, who is shown emerging from his tomb, surrounded by onlookers in awe. The image is a hand-coloured woodcut on paper, with delicate shading and intricate details that bring the scene to life. The black and white base of the woodcut is accentuated by the addition of colour, adding depth and dimension to the image. The lettering at the bottom of the print identifies the artist and the biblical reference. This historic artwork, a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the 16th century, is now part of the permanent collection at the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world. The image invites us to reflect on the power of faith and the miraculous, as well as the artistic mastery of Ludolphus de Saxonia and the curatorial vision of Max Geisberg.
