Resurrection of Jesus

This religious painting from 1475 by Master of Liesborn reflects the enduring importance of religious painting in the Early Renaissance. Master of Liesborn brings distinctive artistic vision to the sacred narrative, creating a work that served both devotional and artistic purposes in fifteenth-century European culture. The final decades of the Quattrocento witnessed an explosion of artistic talent across Italy, with Florence, Venice, Ferrara, and Mantua all producing masters of the first rank.

Master of Liesborn employs skilled technique and careful observation to convey the spiritual gravity of the subject. The treatment of the figures shows careful study of earlier masters, while the palette and lighting create the devotional atmosphere the subject demands.
