''Faust'' (b., Holl. 270; H. 260) is an etching by the Dutch master Rembrandt van Rijn, created around 1652. This work of art is often referred to as ''Faust in his Study'' or ''The Alchemist'', and it depicts a moment from the legendary tale of Dr. Johann Faust, a scholar who purportedly made a pact with the devil. The etching is notable for its intricate detail and the interplay of light and shadow, which is characteristic of Rembrandt's work.

The scene captures Faust in his study, surrounded by the tools of his scholarly pursuits, as he contemplates a magic circle illuminated by a mysterious light that streams through a window. This light is often interpreted as a divine or supernatural presence, possibly signifying the moment of Faust's enlightenment or the impending arrival of Mephistopheles, the devil's emissary. The etching is rich in allegorical detail, including the objects in the room that suggest the conflict between science, magic, and religion.

''Faust'' is considered one of Rembrandt's most enigmatic and debated works, with scholars discussing its symbolism and connection to the Faustian legend. The etching is part of a larger body of Rembrandt's work that explores themes of morality, the human condition, and the search for knowledge. It is held in high esteem for its technical mastery and its ability to capture the viewer's imagination with its narrative depth.

The etching is catalogued as Bartsch number 270 and Hinterding number 260, following the numbering systems of Adam von Bartsch and Erik Hinterding, respectively, who were prominent scholars in the field of Rembrandt's prints. ''Faust'' remains a significant piece in the oeuvre of Rembrandt's printed works and continues to be studied and admired for its artistic and historical significance.
