Painting Description
"Christ Healing the Sick: A Fragment," also known as "The Hundred Guilder Print," is an etching by the Dutch master Rembrandt van Rijn, created circa 1643-1649. This work is considered one of Rembrandt's most significant and complex etchings, showcasing his mastery of the medium and his deep engagement with biblical subject matter. The etching derives its informal name from a legend that Rembrandt sold the print for 100 guilders, an impressive sum at the time, reflecting its high esteem among collectors.
The etching depicts a scene from the Gospel of Matthew (Matthew 19:2), where Jesus Christ is shown performing miracles and healing the sick. The composition is notable for its intricate layering of multiple episodes and figures, illustrating not just the healing miracles but also the diverse reactions of the onlookers, which range from awe to skepticism. Rembrandt's use of light and shadow, as well as his attention to detail, imbues the scene with a sense of drama and emotional depth.
Measuring approximately 280 x 398 mm, "Christ Healing the Sick: A Fragment" is characterized by its combination of drypoint and etching techniques, which allowed Rembrandt to achieve a remarkable variety of tones and textures. The print is known for its unfinished state, which has led to the designation "A Fragment." Despite this, or perhaps because of it, the work is celebrated for its lively and sketch-like quality, which gives viewers insight into Rembrandt's artistic process.
The etching is held in high regard not only for its artistic excellence but also for its theological and spiritual significance. It reflects Rembrandt's personal engagement with religious themes and his ability to convey complex narratives through the medium of printmaking. Today, "Christ Healing the Sick: A Fragment" is housed in various collections around the world and remains a subject of study for its artistic and historical importance.
