"Der Taufling" (The Baptismal Candidate) is a painting by the German impressionist painter Franz Skarbina (1849–1910). Skarbina, known for his detailed and atmospheric works, often depicted scenes of Berlin life, capturing the essence of the city during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. "Der Taufling" is one of his works that reflects this interest, showcasing his ability to convey the nuances of everyday moments through his art.

The painting portrays a baptism scene, a common ceremony in Christian traditions. Skarbina's treatment of the subject is notable for its attention to the play of light and shadow, as well as the expressions and postures of the figures involved, which suggest the solemnity and significance of the event. The artist's use of color and brushwork contribute to the overall mood, imbuing the scene with a sense of intimacy and reverence.

"Der Taufling" is an example of Skarbina's skill in genre painting, a style that focuses on scenes of ordinary life. His work often included elements of social commentary, subtly reflecting on the conditions and mores of his time. As with many of Skarbina's paintings, "Der Taufling" is likely to have been well-received by his contemporaries for its technical proficiency and its ability to capture a slice of life in a rapidly modernizing world.

Franz Skarbina was a respected figure in the Berlin art scene, and his works are held in various collections, including the Berlin National Gallery. "Der Taufling" contributes to the understanding of Skarbina's oeuvre and offers insight into the cultural and social history of the period in which he lived and worked.
