Study for Resurrection, c. 1855
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Jules Elie Delaunay captures the essence of a profound spiritual concept through its intricate graphite on ivory china paper drawing. This 19th-century artwork, housed in the Art Institute of Chicago, showcases Delaunay's exceptional talent and his ability to convey deep emotions. The monochromatic black and white composition adds a timeless quality to the piece, emphasizing the universal significance of resurrection. The central figure of Jesus Christ stands prominently amidst a group of other male figures, representing humanity as a whole. Their nudity symbolizes vulnerability and purity before divinity. Delaunay's attention to detail is evident in every stroke; each line meticulously portrays the human form with grace and precision. The artist's French heritage shines through his mastery of technique and composition. This study invites viewers to contemplate life after death and explore themes of faith, redemption, and hope. It serves as a testament to Delaunay's artistic vision while also reflecting broader European art movements prevalent during that time period. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Heritage Images' collection, we are transported back in time to witness an extraordinary moment frozen on paper—a moment that challenges us to ponder our own mortality while embracing the eternal promise held within resurrection itself.
