Survey of fictional works on [[Nicodemus]].
==Overview==
Nicodemus figures prominently in the Christian iconography of the Deposition in which he and [[:Category:Joseph of Arimathea (subject)|Joseph of Arimathea]] are shown removing the dead [[:Category:Jesus of Nazareth (subject)|Jesus of Nazareth]] from the cross, often with the aid of a ladder.
The meeting between Jesus and Nicodemus is less often depicted in traditional iconography. In modern movies on Jesus of Nazareth, the episode offers the opportunity for a cameo by renowned actors, such as Joseph Schildkraut in [[The Greatest Story Ever Told (1965 Stevens), film]], or Laurence Olivier in [[Jesus of Nazareth (1977 Zeffirelli), film]].
