Painting Description
"Moses Smashing the Tablets of the Law" is a renowned oil painting by the Dutch master Rembrandt van Rijn, created in 1659. This work of art, measuring approximately 168.5 cm by 136.5 cm, is housed in the Gemäldegalerie, Berlin. The painting depicts a pivotal moment from the biblical narrative found in Exodus 32, where Moses descends from Mount Sinai only to find the Israelites worshipping a golden calf, prompting him to break the tablets inscribed with the Ten Commandments in a fit of rage.
Rembrandt's portrayal of this dramatic scene is imbued with emotional intensity and a masterful use of chiaroscuro, a technique he is well-known for, which involves the contrast of light and shadow to achieve a sense of volume and depth. The figure of Moses is central to the composition, with his face expressing a mixture of wrath and sorrow, capturing the gravity of the Israelites' betrayal. The shattered tablets at his feet symbolize the broken covenant between God and his people.
The painting is considered one of Rembrandt's significant late works, reflecting his deep engagement with biblical subjects and his ability to convey complex human emotions. "Moses Smashing the Tablets of the Law" is not only a testament to Rembrandt's skill as a painter but also serves as a powerful visual interpretation of a key moment in Judeo-Christian religious history. Its presence in the Gemäldegalerie underscores its importance within the canon of European art and its enduring impact on viewers and scholars alike.
