"Kreuzabnahme Christi" (The Descent from the Cross) is a seminal work of art in the oeuvre of Dutch master Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn. Completed in 1634, this oil on canvas painting measures approximately 158cm by 117cm. The artwork currently resides in the Alte Pinakothek, a significant art museum located in Munich, Germany.

This masterwork features the Biblical occasion of the removal of Jesus Christ's body from the cross his crucifixion. Part of a series commissioned by the Dutch Frederik Hendrickszoon, the painting exemplifies Rembrandt's innovative use of lighting and his ability to capture intense emotion and movement, elements that are characteristic of the Baroque period.

In the composition, Rembrandt pushes the boundaries of visual representation to evoke profundity and drama. The focus is on the varied expressions of grief among the group assisting in the descent of Christ, making the event intensely human and personal.

In capturing the torment and sorrow of the death of Christ, Rembrandt amplifies the emotional resonance through his signature use of chiaroscuro, illuminating the pivotal figures while relegating others to shadow. The effect is a dramatic and emotional portrayal of an event, suggesting both the tragedy of death and the hope of resurrection in Christian doctrine.

This painting serves not only as a compelling piece of religious art, but also as an iconic example of the Dutch Golden Age of painting. Despite depicting a somber religious scene, "Kreuzabnahme Christi" remains an insightful exploration of human emotion, thereby demonstrating Rembrandt's artistic genius.
