High altar. Design for a high altar, French, around 1720 Pen and black ink, gray wash. Approx. 47 x 29 cm. The austere altar structure in the style of French Baroque classicism, in which horizontal and vertical lines dominate, imitates a temple façade with columns, architrave and pediment. The altar is crowned by a pull-out leaf above the parapet. Above the altar mensa, the resurrection of Christ is shown in impressive illusionism, which allows the dramatic depiction to project into the church interior. While the figure of the Resurrected Christ is probably painted, the angel and the guards are to be thought of as fully sculpted sculptures. In the Exodus painting, God the Father and the Holy Spirit await the risen Christ.
