"Abraham's Sacrifice" (b., Holl. 35; H. 283; Bb. 55-b) is an etching by the renowned Dutch artist Rembrandt van Rijn, created in 1655. This work is a compelling representation of the biblical story of Abraham's near-sacrifice of his son Isaac, a narrative found in the Book of Genesis. Rembrandt, known for his masterful use of light and shadow, as well as his profound ability to capture human emotion, brings a dramatic intensity to this pivotal moment in the Abrahamic religions.

In this etching, Rembrandt depicts the climactic scene where Abraham, having been commanded by God to sacrifice his son, is stopped at the last moment by an angel. The composition is marked by its dynamic interplay of light and dark, which heightens the emotional tension of the scene. Abraham is shown with a knife in hand, poised to obey the divine command, while Isaac lies bound on the altar, his face a mixture of fear and resignation. The angel, emerging from the shadows, halts Abraham's hand, symbolizing divine intervention and mercy.

Rembrandt's technique in this etching is notable for its meticulous detail and expressive line work. The artist employs a range of etching techniques to create texture and depth, from the fine lines that define the figures to the broader strokes that suggest the surrounding landscape. This work is a testament to Rembrandt's skill in conveying complex narratives and emotions through the medium of etching.

"Abraham's Sacrifice" is part of Rembrandt's broader oeuvre of biblical scenes, which reflect his deep engagement with religious themes and his ability to humanize these ancient stories. The etching is considered one of Rembrandt's masterpieces in printmaking, showcasing his technical prowess and his profound understanding of the human condition. Today, it remains a significant work for both its artistic merit and its theological implications, continuing to be studied and admired by art historians and enthusiasts alike.
