Dead Christ with Angels, etched copperplate by Édouard Manet
A seated, semi-nude male figure with a bearded face and head bowed rests against darkness, supported by two winged angels behind him, one at left and one at right. Dense hatching and aquatint tones in brown-black ink on a copperplate give the scene a dramatic, softly modeled atmosphere.
