"Apostle Paul" (1635) is a celebrated oil painting by the Dutch master Rembrandt van Rijn, housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. This artwork is one of a series of apostle paintings created by Rembrandt in the mid-1630s. The painting depicts Paul the Apostle, a pivotal figure in early Christianity, known for his missionary journeys and epistles in the New Testament.

In this portrait, Rembrandt captures Paul in a moment of contemplation, surrounded by the tools of his trade—a book, presumably a Bible, and a quill for writing his epistles. The apostle's introspective gaze and the dramatic use of chiaroscuro, a technique that contrasts light and dark, are characteristic of Rembrandt's mature style. The rich textures of Paul's clothing and the atmospheric quality of the space he inhabits further demonstrate the artist's mastery of painting techniques.

The work is notable for its psychological depth and the humanization of a saintly figure. Rembrandt's portrayal of Paul as a thoughtful, aged man, rather than an idealized apostle, reflects the artist's interest in conveying the emotional and spiritual life of his subjects. The painting's dimensions are 131.5 cm by 104.4 cm (51 3/4 in. by 41 1/8 in.).

"Apostle Paul" is widely admired for its artistic excellence and is considered a prime example of Rembrandt's portraiture. It contributes significantly to the understanding of the artist's religious works and his approach to depicting biblical figures with a sense of realism and empathy. The painting remains an important piece within Rembrandt's oeuvre and continues to be studied for its stylistic and thematic contributions to the Baroque period.
