Painting Description
"Christ Healing the Sick: 'The Hundred Guilder Print'" is a renowned etching by the Dutch master Rembrandt van Rijn, created in approximately 1649. This masterpiece, also known simply as "The Hundred Guilder Print," is celebrated for its intricate detail, emotional depth, and complex composition, showcasing Rembrandt's unparalleled skill in the medium of etching. The work derives its nickname from the high price it fetched during Rembrandt's lifetime, equivalent to 100 guilders, reflecting its extraordinary value and the esteem in which it was held.
The etching is based on the Gospel of Matthew (Matthew 19:1-2, 13-15, 16-22), amalgamating various scenes and teachings of Jesus Christ into a single, cohesive narrative. This includes Christ's discussions on marriage and wealth, his interactions with the Pharisees, the blessing of the children, and the healing of the sick, culminating in a rich tapestry of religious and humanistic themes. The composition is remarkable for its synthesis of these episodes, presenting a panoramic view of Christ's teachings and miracles, and emphasizing his compassion and the inclusive nature of his message.
Measuring approximately 280 x 387 mm, the etching stands out for its technical brilliance and the use of light and shadow, which bring a dramatic intensity to the scene. Rembrandt employs a variety of etching techniques, including drypoint and burin, to achieve textures and depth, making "The Hundred Guilder Print" not only a work of profound spiritual insight but also a showcase of the artist's mastery over the etching medium.
The print has been widely studied and admired for its artistic and theological significance, representing a high point in Rembrandt's graphic work. It is held in numerous public and private collections worldwide and continues to be a subject of scholarly research, admired for its narrative complexity, technical skill, and emotional resonance. "The Hundred Guilder Print" remains a testament to Rembrandt's genius, illustrating his ability to blend biblical storytelling with the human condition, making it a masterpiece of Baroque art.
