Painting Description
''Christ Healing the Sick'', commonly known as ''the Hundred Guilder Print'', is a renowned etching by the Dutch master Rembrandt van Rijn, created circa 1643-1649. This work, catalogued as Bartsch 74, Hollstein 68, and Hinterding 124, is considered one of Rembrandt's most intricate and celebrated etchings. The name "Hundred Guilder Print" originates from a legend that Rembrandt sold the print for a hundred guilders, an impressive sum at the time, reflecting its high esteem among collectors and the artist's contemporaries.
The etching depicts a composite scene drawn from the Gospel of Matthew (Matthew 19:13-26), where Christ is portrayed as a healer and teacher, surrounded by a multitude of figures representing various ailments and conditions, both physical and spiritual. The work is notable for its intricate detail, masterful use of light and shadow, and the emotional depth with which Rembrandt imbues each character. The composition is a testament to Rembrandt's skill in storytelling through visual means, as he weaves together multiple episodes into a single, harmonious narrative.
Measuring approximately 280 x 390 mm, ''the Hundred Guilder Print'' showcases Rembrandt's virtuosity in the etching medium, employing a variety of techniques including drypoint and engraving to achieve textures and tones ranging from the softest grays to the deepest blacks. The print exists in several states, with variations that reveal the artist's process of experimentation and revision.
As one of Rembrandt's most sought-after prints, ''the Hundred Guilder Print'' has been extensively studied for its artistic and historical significance. It is held in high regard for its complex composition, its exploration of human emotion and condition, and its embodiment of the artist's deeply personal interpretation of biblical themes. The print remains a highlight of Rembrandt's graphic oeuvre and continues to be a subject of admiration for its technical brilliance and profound humanity.
