Amazing painting of the Resurrection of Christ by Ron DiCianni


Ron DiCianni, a popular Christian illustrator was commissioned to paint the largest mural depiction of the Resurrection ever. You might know DiCianni by his popular portrait of a father kneeling at his child’s bed in intense prayer called ‘Spiritual Warfare’ which is shown above.

His picture of the Resurrection of Christ is amazing, and you can watch a video of it by clicking on this link.

The Resurrection of Christ is 12 feet by 40 feet, and it took him two years to complete. The mural is notable because not many paintings show Jesus emerging from the tomb in a triumphant, forward facing pose. The painting also shows prophets who came before Jesus – Moses, Elijah, King David.

The painting will be installed at the Museum of Biblical Art in Dallas.
