Painting Description
''Christ Healing the Sick: 'The Hundred Guilder Print''' is a renowned etching by the Dutch master Rembrandt van Rijn, created circa 1643-1649. This work, one of Rembrandt's most famous etchings, is also known by the name ''The Hundred Guilder Print'' due to the high price it fetched during Rembrandt's lifetime, equivalent to 100 guilders. The etching is celebrated for its intricate detail, compositional complexity, and the masterful use of light and shadow, which exemplify Rembrandt's skill in the etching medium.
The print depicts a scene from the Gospel of Matthew (Matthew 19:2), where Jesus is shown healing the sick and preaching to a multitude of followers. The work is remarkable for its synthesis of various episodes from the chapter into a single, cohesive image, illustrating the parables and teachings of Jesus. The composition is divided into several groups, with Christ at the center, surrounded by figures representing the sick, the poor, the curious, and his disciples, each rendered with individual care and attention to detail.
Rembrandt's use of drypoint and etching techniques allowed him to achieve a wide range of tonal effects, from the deepest blacks to the most delicate grays, which contribute to the dramatic atmosphere of the scene. The print's name, ''The Hundred Guilder Print'', not only reflects its monetary value but also suggests the esteem in which it was held by collectors and connoisseurs of the time.
Today, ''Christ Healing the Sick: 'The Hundred Guilder Print''' is held in high regard by art historians and is considered one of the pinnacles of Rembrandt's printmaking oeuvre. It is housed in various museum collections around the world, including the British Museum in London and the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. The work continues to be a subject of scholarly interest and is frequently cited in discussions of Rembrandt's religious imagery, his technique, and his impact on the history of art.
