Isenheim Altarpiece: The Resurrection | Matthias Grünewald | c. 1512-16 Phillipe de Champaigne and emotional expressionAbout the artwork: The right panel of the Isenheim Altarpieces second view depicts one of the most dazzling and otherworldly scenes in Christian art: the Resurrection of Christ. Emerging from the tomb, Christs transfigured body radiates an intense light that floods the darkness around him, his wounds glowing like rubies. The soldiers guarding the tomb collapse in terror, their armor reflecting the supernatural brilliance that fills the scene. Matthias
