The Passion of Christ iconography was an important topic for Pacheco. When the author analysed the scene of the “Resurrection”, among several observations on how to do it, he states the inadequate manners to depict such a scene: the tomb of Christ opened and Christ takes one leg out to get out of it around it, also the terrified guards covering themselves, some with their shields and, behind, reaching for their swords. All these elements should be avoided.

Molanus affirms that the resurrection of Christ should be depicted with a closed tomb and not with an open as some painters tend to do

When the author analysed how to depict Christ in the scene of Assumption of Mary, concerning the representation of Christ, the author says: wearing only one tunic (which corresponds to his clothes after the Resurrection), and not two as did Jerónimo Nadal.
