Women at the Empty Tomb - Fra Angelico

9/11 - Fra Angelico Series

Invite the awe-inspiring mystery and spiritual triumph of Early Renaissance art into your space with this stunning art print of the Women at the Empty Tomb (also known as the Resurrection) by Italian master Fra Angelico.

This powerful print captures the definitive moment of hope following Christ's passion. An angel in luminous white garments sits atop the empty stone sepulcher, raising a hand to announce the resurrection to the Three Marys (Mary Magdalene, Mary Cleophas, and Mary Salome). One woman peers deeply into the void of the tomb in astonished realization. Above the scene, the resurrected Christ floats in a brilliant, fiery mandorla of light, holding a banner of victory. On the far left, kneeling in quiet adoration, a Dominican friar—often identified as Saint Dominic—serves as a timeless witness to the miracle.

Painted between 1440 and 1442, this masterpiece is a reproduction of the original fresco located in Cell 8 of the Convento di San Marco in Florence, Italy. Fra Angelico deliberately paired the earthly sorrow of the grieving women with the celestial radiance of the ascending Christ. Created specifically for the private living space of a Dominican monk, this balanced, minimalist composition was carefully designed to inspire deep theological meditation, quiet prayer, and a sense of enduring hope.
