"Das Kolf-spiel" (The Kolf Game) is a painting attributed to the Dutch master Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn, dated to approximately 1654. This artwork is notable for its depiction of the early modern Dutch sport known as "kolf," a precursor to modern-day golf. The painting showcases Rembrandt's skill in capturing the nuances of human activity and his adept use of chiaroscuro to emphasize the drama of everyday life.

The composition of "Das Kolf-spiel" features figures engaged in the sport within a wintery landscape, a common setting for kolf, which was played on ice during the Netherlands' colder months. The painting's provenance and authenticity have been subjects of scholarly debate, as is the case with many works attributed to Rembrandt or his workshop. Despite this, the painting is often cited as an important example of Rembrandt's genre scenes, which reflect the cultural practices and leisure activities of 17th-century Dutch society.

"Das Kolf-spiel" is held in high regard for its historical value in documenting the early forms of sports and games, as well as for its artistic merit. Rembrandt's ability to infuse the scene with a sense of movement and liveliness, while simultaneously capturing the serene atmosphere of a winter's day, demonstrates his mastery of painting techniques and his keen observation of the human condition.

The painting is part of a larger body of Rembrandt's work that contributes significantly to the understanding of the social customs of the Dutch Golden Age. It remains an important piece for both art historians and cultural scholars in studying the period's pastimes and the evolution of sports. As with many of Rembrandt's works, "Das Kolf-spiel" continues to be admired for its technical brilliance and its rich portrayal of 17th-century life.
