Tessarius Nightwatch. After Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519)

Rendered in the evocative chiaroscuro style of Leonardo da Vinci, this powerful piece captures Tessara, a Roman guard stationed at Christ’s sealed tomb. 

Clad in classical armor and bathed in the glow of a somber moonlight, his vigilant pose evokes both strength and inner conflict. The distant city fades into shadow, contrasting the watchman’s luminous form—a subtle nod to the dawning revelation to come. 

This contemplative work masterfully blends anatomical precision, emotional depth, and narrative tension, inviting the viewer to ponder the quiet moments before history shifted forever. Read about the mastery of Leonardo da Vinci, The Mind of Da Vinci: A Journey into Genius.
