"Christ Instructing Nicodemus" is a notable painting by the Dutch Golden Age artist Crijn Hendricksz. Volmarijn, who was active during the early to mid-17th century. This work exemplifies the Baroque style that was prevalent during Volmarijn's time, characterized by dramatic use of light and shadow, as well as a focus on emotional intensity and realism.

The painting depicts a significant biblical scene from the Gospel of John, where Nicodemus, a Pharisee and member of the Jewish ruling council, visits Jesus at night to seek spiritual enlightenment. This nocturnal setting allows Volmarijn to employ the chiaroscuro technique, creating a striking contrast between light and dark areas to highlight the figures and their expressions. The use of light in the painting not only serves an aesthetic purpose but also symbolizes the enlightenment and divine wisdom that Christ imparts to Nicodemus.

Volmarijn's attention to detail is evident in the intricate rendering of the characters' garments and the thoughtful composition that guides the viewer's eye towards the central interaction between Christ and Nicodemus. The artist's ability to capture the nuanced expressions of the figures adds a layer of depth to the narrative, emphasizing the gravity and significance of the moment.

"Christ Instructing Nicodemus" is a testament to Volmarijn's skill in conveying complex theological themes through his art. While not as widely known as some of his contemporaries, Volmarijn's work contributes to the rich tapestry of Dutch Golden Age painting, offering insight into the religious and cultural milieu of the period. This painting remains an important piece for both art historians and enthusiasts, reflecting the enduring power of biblical stories to inspire and challenge viewers across centuries.
