I thought that it would be the painting on The Resurrection by Piero della Francesca. Sure enough. It is, indeed, one of the greatest and most memorable paintings of all time. Not the sort of thing I would imagine Aldous Huxley admiring, but I guess he just couldn’t help it.

This painting has very strange depth perspective.

The foreground isn’t deep enough to be occupied by four adult men. The two slumped asleep against the tomb have no legs visiblle; the fellow on the right has two legs while the man on the left shows only one!

Well, it does depict a miracle!
