A poet's vision of the Resurrected Christ in glory with the Evangelists, saints and angels, with the scourging of the Earth below

The pupil of Giulio Campagnola, whose surname he adopted, Domenico was trained in early 16th-Century Venice in the circle of Titian and Giorgione, whose pastoral idiom was immensely influential on his work. The present sheet belongs to a series of drawings depicting events from the Life of Christ, now scattered; other examples of this group are Christ in the House of Simon, at Chatsworth (M. Jaffe, The Devonshire Collection of Italian Drawings: Venetian and North Italian Schools, London, 1994, p. 73, no. 778), and the Landscape with the Temptation of Christ at the Royal Cornwall Museum, Truro (M. Joannides, A loan exhibition of Master Drawings from the De Pass Collection, The Royal Cornwall Museum, London, 1994, p. 20, no. 5).
