The Raising of Lazarus

Dark interior scene of the biblical raising of Lazarus: a bearded figure in a purple robe and yellow sash raises his arm toward a tomb, where a pale shrouded man sits up. Kneeling women and onlookers lean in at left, lit by a warm glow against deep shadow, with a sword hanging on the wall at right.
