The Resurrection of Jesus shown in the 1st image is by Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn (1606-1669). He was a Dutch painter and etcher. He is generally considered one of the greatest painters and printmakers in European art and the most important in Dutch history. His contributions to art came in a period of great wealth and cultural achievement that historians call the Dutch Golden Age when Dutch Golden Age painting, although in many ways antithetical to the Baroque style that dominated Europe, was extremely prolific and innovative, and gave rise to important new genres in painting.
The four other post-resurrection images are from a book "The Life of Jesus of Nazareth" Circa. 1900.by William Brassey Hole (1846-1917) The illustrations were originally water color paintings. Hole was an English artist, illustrator, etcher and engraver, known for his industrial, historical and biblical scenes.
