About Resurrection
A note from Mark Mabry
There is an hour between dying and being seen. The Resurrection happened, and for a stretch of time that nobody in the Bible recorded, the Savior was alive again and no one knew it yet. Mary was still walking to the tomb in the dark. The disciples did not know yet.
In this image, He is in that hour. The frame catches Him from behind. White robe, bright sky, the morning before the morning. The figure is walking. Alive again.
Christ kept the marks for later. He had a moment for Mary by name and a moment for Thomas by touch. This one belongs to Him alone. He walks. He has not said anything yet. The picture stays in the seconds before the first witness arrives.
I made this image in black and white on purpose. Color would crowd a moment that wanted nothing. The morning belongs to Christ. The rest of the chapter is on its way.
The companion launch piece, the photograph that anchored Reflections of Christ alongside this one, is Walking on Water. The wounded hand He will hold out a few verses later lives in Perfect. The full Resurrection Collection sits here.
HE LIVES.
Common questions
What scene does Resurrection depict?
The morning of the Resurrection. The risen Christ alone, walking away from the tomb. The figure is shown from behind, three-quarter view, white robe against a bright sky. The face is intentionally not turned. The image holds the still hour before Mary, before the upper room, before Thomas.
Is Resurrection a painting?
It is a photograph. Mark Mabry made the image in black and white on purpose. Color would have crowded a moment that wanted nothing.
Why is Resurrection in black and white?
The morning belongs to Christ. Color would have brought the rest of the chapter into the frame too soon. The black and white treatment lets the figure of the risen Christ carry the whole image.
Where does Resurrection look best in a home?
Most often above a mantel, in an entry, or paired with Walking on Water in the same room. The two have anchored Reflections of Christ from the beginning. A bright wall suits it. A dim corner does not.
Who is Resurrection for?
For the home that wants Christ on the wall in the quiet register. For the season that needs the morning before the noise. For Easter and for any Sunday after.
Framed Canvas Art
Two ways to frame your canvas. Pick the one that fits the room.
Float Framed Canvas (generally more modern). A 1.5-inch-deep Premium Gallery Wrapped Canvas sits inside a slim frame with a small gap between frame and canvas, so the print appears to float. Available in nine thin frame profiles: Thin Gold, Thin White, Thin Silver, Thin Black, Thin Walnut, Thin Maple, Thin Oak, Thin Espresso, and Thin Natural. Ships ready to hang with hanging cleat, black backing, and bumpers.
Classic Framed Canvas (generally more traditional). A 0.75-inch-deep premium canvas sits inside the frame the way frames have held important pictures for centuries. Available in five hand-finished profiles: Plein Air Gold, Vintage Copper, Black Gold Classic, Concerto Black Gold, and Driftwood Gray. Ships ready to hang with hanging wire and black backing.
Both styles are framed to order in the USA with gallery-quality precision.

Lately, Fisher has been afraid of “monsters”. We pray every night, but I think seeing Jesus just outside his room really helps. No talk of monsters anymore!
It’s so important to instill God’s love on our boys and teach them about their Father.

Betsy Mikesell, TN
I was always told to look for God in everything, how I live and look at life. It is important to me to have this picture of Jesus to be reminded daily of his kindness, wonder, and love. If remembrance is a value of yours; this is the perfect way to start!
