"Die Beschneidung Christi" (The Circumcision of Christ) is a woodcut print by the German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer, created in the late 15th or early 16th century. This work is part of Dürer's larger series of woodcuts known as the "Leben der Maria" (Life of the Virgin), which illustrates various events from the life of the Virgin Mary, and by extension, the early life of Jesus Christ. The series is celebrated for its intricate detail and the innovative use of the woodcut medium, which Dürer elevated to a level of fine art.

The print depicts the biblical scene of the circumcision of Jesus, as described in the Gospel of Luke 2:21, which is traditionally celebrated in the Christian liturgical calendar as the Feast of the Circumcision of Christ. The event is significant in Christian theology as it represents Jesus' first shedding of blood, prefiguring his crucifixion and the redemption of humanity.

In "Die Beschneidung Christi," Dürer showcases his mastery of composition and his ability to convey a narrative through imagery. The scene is set within an architectural framework, possibly a temple, with a gathering of figures around the infant Christ. The characters are rendered with a high degree of individuality and expressiveness, a hallmark of Dürer's humanistic approach to art.

Dürer's work is characterized by its technical precision and the use of a rich visual language that includes symbolic elements. The woodcut is notable for its fine lines and attention to detail, which would have been achieved through the careful carving of a wooden block—a testament to Dürer's skill as both an artist and a craftsman.

As a significant piece within the "Life of the Virgin" series, "Die Beschneidung Christi" reflects the religious and cultural milieu of the time, as well as Dürer's personal devotion and his exploration of human emotion and sacred themes. The print remains an important example of Northern Renaissance art and contributes to the understanding of Dürer's oeuvre and the development of printmaking in Europe.
