Van Gogh did not have access to the original plate, so he worked from a black-and-white reproduction. He translated the dramatic chiaroscuro of the Dutch master into his own distinct palette of yellows, greens, and ochres.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe composition depicts the biblical moment where Lazarus emerges from the tomb. Van Gogh replaces the figure of Christ, present in Rembrandt's original, with a radiant sun, which serves as a symbol of life and resurrection. The figures of Mary and Martha are rendered with expressive, heavy brushwork, their gestures conveying a sense of urgency and wonder. The background features a stylised, undulating sky that echoes the emotional intensity of the scene.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis painting is part of a series of copies Van Gogh produced towards the end of his life. He sought to engage with the works of artists he admired, such as Delacroix, Millet, and Rembrandt, to maintain his creative momentum during periods of confinement. By reinterpreting these subjects, he explored the relationship between traditional religious iconography and his own subjective experience of colour and form. The application of paint is thick and deliberate, creating a textured surface that captures the light in a way that differs from the smooth finish of the seventeenth-century original. The work remains a clear example of his ability to synthesise historical influence with his personal stylistic development, focusing on the emotional resonance of the narrative rather than a literal transcription of the source material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/christ-crucified-between-the-two-thieves-the-three-crosses-rembrandt-van-rijn\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eChrist Crucified Between the Two Thieves: 'The Three Crosses' - Rembrandt van Rijn by Rembrandt\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/the-descent-from-the-cross-second-plate-rembrandt-harmensz-van-rijn\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eThe Descent from the Cross: Second Plate by Rembrandt Harmensz. van Rijn\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Vincent van Gogh","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59119572091215,"sku":null,"price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":59119585395023,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":59119585427791,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59119585460559,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59119585493327,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59119585526095,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59119585558863,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59119585591631,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59119585624399,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59119585657167,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59119585689935,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59119585722703,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/The-Raising-of-Lazarus-after-Rembrandt-_Poster_CompositorV1_1791987447275.jpg?v=1791987801","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/products\/the-raising-of-lazarus-after-rembrandt-vincent-van-gogh","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
