"Faust" (b., Holl. 270; H. 260; Bb. 52-4) is an etching and drypoint created by the renowned Dutch artist Rembrandt van Rijn, dating from around 1652. This work is one of Rembrandt's most enigmatic and evocative prints, capturing the essence of the Faustian legend, which revolves around a scholar who makes a pact with the devil in exchange for knowledge and power. The etching is notable for its intricate detail, dramatic use of light and shadow, and the profound sense of mystery it evokes.

In the composition, a bearded scholar, often interpreted as Faust, is depicted in his study, gazing intently at a luminous apparition that appears before him. The apparition, which seems to be a celestial or supernatural vision, is surrounded by a glowing aura, contrasting starkly with the dark, shadowy interior of the scholar's study. The room is filled with various scholarly paraphernalia, including books, a globe, and scientific instruments, emphasizing the intellectual pursuits of the figure.

Rembrandt's mastery of etching and drypoint techniques is evident in the rich textures and fine details of the print. The use of chiaroscuro, a technique that employs strong contrasts between light and dark, enhances the dramatic effect and adds depth to the scene. The play of light not only highlights the central figure and the apparition but also creates a sense of three-dimensionality and realism.

The work is often interpreted as a reflection on the themes of knowledge, ambition, and the supernatural, which were prevalent in the cultural and intellectual milieu of the 17th century. It also showcases Rembrandt's ability to convey complex psychological states and narratives through his art. "Faust" remains a significant example of Rembrandt's printmaking prowess and his exploration of profound and timeless human themes.
