Title
Resurrection of man
Description

Allegory of the salvation of man. Divine Grace (Gratia) helps the fallen Man (Homo) to stand up. The man rests with his hand on a stone, the symbol of Christ as the cornerstone referred to as Knowledge of God (Cognito Dei). In the background on the left she is also taking care of the fallen man, in front of the House of Darkness (Domus Tenebrarum) where he has just come out. Inside the house the representations of the previous prints from this series are more or less repeated. On the right side of the print is the rescued man, Light of Truth (Lumen Veritas), with a burning oil lamp on his head. She points out to Man the three divine virtues, Hope, Faith and Love, which have appeared on a cloud in heaven. Above them the dove of the Holy Spirit. The representation is clarified in the Dutch, French and German captions in the margin.

Print published in Antwerp by Willem van Haecht who also composed the text. Engraved by Hieronymus Wierix after design by Ambrosius Francken (I).
