A transi, in the funerary art of the late Middle Ages and the Renaissance, is a sculpture depicting a dead man. Transi in the same way as the most modern deceased, means dead. Unlike the lying figure of a lying, sleeping character, in a blissful or smiling attitude, the transi represents the deceased realistically, naked or even putrefying. Exceptionally, this transi, like that of Duke René in the church of Saint-Etienne at Bar-le-Duc, sculpted by Ligier Richier, is standing, his shield smoothed, and reaching out his heart to the sky.
