"The Circumcision, from The Life of the Virgin" is a notable engraving by the Dutch artist Hendrick Goltzius, created in 1594 during the Northern Renaissance. Goltzius, renowned for his virtuosity in printmaking, was a leading figure in the Haarlem Mannerist school, and his works were celebrated for their intricate detail and innovative compositions. This particular engraving is part of a series that depicts various scenes from the life of the Virgin Mary, showcasing Goltzius's mastery of the burin and his ability to convey complex religious narratives with emotional depth and visual splendor.

The artwork illustrates the biblical event of the circumcision of Jesus, as described in the New Testament, which is traditionally celebrated in Christianity as the Feast of the Circumcision. Goltzius's interpretation of this scene is characterized by its dynamic figures, elaborate drapery, and the use of light and shadow to emphasize the drama of the moment. The composition is carefully constructed to guide the viewer's eye towards the central action, where the infant Jesus is presented for the ritual by the Virgin Mary, with Joseph and other figures witnessing the event.

"The Circumcision, from The Life of the Virgin" reflects Goltzius's humanist education and his engagement with both classical antiquity and contemporary theological thought. His work not only demonstrates technical prowess but also contributes to the visual culture of the period, offering insight into the religious and artistic sensibilities of the late 16th century. The engraving remains an important example of Goltzius's oeuvre and of the printmaking tradition in the Dutch Golden Age, held in high regard by art historians and collectors alike for its aesthetic beauty and historical significance.
