The Calling Forth of Lazarus

The image depicts, to the right, Lazarus wrapped in bandages as the coffin is taken away (as customary at the time). He is supported by some people. He is looking directly at Jesus, to the left of the painting, who has his right arm stretched out towards Lazarus.

Reproduced by kind permission of the Custos and community OFMConv, Sacro Convento, Assisi

Scripture Reference - John 11: 38-44
