Even painters who aren’t overtly Christian still find great value in exploring the concept of new life, redemption, and hope for a transformational spiritual experience. There are many devotional religious paintings, many of them truly magnificent, depicting the resurrected Christ. There are also other perspectives on the theme of resurrection that might make Easter even more meaningful for you as you ponder them.
