"The Resurrection of Christ" is one of the central panels of the Isenheim Altarpiece, a masterwork of German Renaissance art created by Matthias Grünewald (also known as Mathis Gothardt) between 1510 and 1515. This altarpiece is renowned for its vivid imagery, emotional intensity, and complex iconography, and it was originally commissioned for the Monastery of St. Anthony in Isenheim near Colmar, which specialized in hospital work. The monks at the monastery cared for patients suffering from skin diseases, such as ergotism, and the altarpiece's imagery offered them both hope and solace.

Grünewald's "The Resurrection of Christ" is celebrated for its dramatic and expressive interpretation of the biblical event. The panel depicts a triumphant Christ rising from the tomb, surrounded by a burst of radiant light that scatters the guards positioned around the sepulchre. The use of light and shadow, along with Christ's dynamic pose and the guards' varied reactions, contributes to the overall power of the composition.

Unlike the works of his contemporary Albrecht Dürer, Grünewald's style is characterized by its emotional intensity and less adherence to the principles of the Italian Renaissance that were popular at the time. His use of color and form conveys a sense of the miraculous and the divine, transcending the physical suffering depicted in other panels of the altarpiece.

The Isenheim Altarpiece, with "The Resurrection of Christ" as its focal point during the Easter season, is a polyptych that could be opened to display different scenes appropriate for various liturgical periods. This transformative feature made the altarpiece a dynamic instrument of spiritual engagement. Today, the altarpiece is housed in the Unterlinden Museum in Colmar, France, where it continues to be an object of study and admiration for its theological depth and artistic brilliance.
