This plate depicts Elijah resuscitating the child of the Shunammite woman who had earlier befriended him (II Kings 4:8-37).

Another dish by the same hand, and of the same dimensions in the Vatican Museo Sacro, is illustrated by C. Lucches (ed.), L'Istoriato libri a stampa Faenza (1993), pl. 4. Both pieces would have been inspired by Bernard Saloman's woodcuts in Damiano Maraffi: Figure del Vecchio Testamento con versi toscanni, Lyons, 1554.
