The Baroque in 'Meme for a Slave'

Read LABEL
In this towering, two-metre-tall oil painting, Tintoretto depicts Christ rising from the grave, illuminated by a rising sun. Christ carries a red-and-white banner in his left hand, while his right hand delivers a gesture of blessing or benediction to the awakening soldier positioned below. In its original church setting – likely as an altarpiece placed high above churchgoers – the foreshortened figure of Christ would have delivered an even more dramatic sense of the miracle of life defeating death.
