"The Circumcision: Small Plate" (b., Holl.48; H.19; Bb.30-8) is an etching by the renowned Dutch artist Rembrandt van Rijn, created in 1630. This work is part of Rembrandt's early period, during which he was experimenting with the etching technique and developing his distinctive style. The etching depicts the biblical scene of the circumcision of Jesus, an event described in the Gospel of Luke (Luke 2:21). This moment is significant in Christian theology as it marks Jesus' first shedding of blood and his formal induction into the Jewish faith.

Rembrandt's interpretation of the scene is notable for its intimate and humanizing portrayal of the figures involved. The composition is tightly focused, drawing the viewer's attention to the central action. The figures are rendered with a remarkable degree of detail and expressiveness, showcasing Rembrandt's skill in capturing human emotion and interaction. The use of light and shadow in the etching is particularly striking, a technique that Rembrandt would continue to refine throughout his career.

The "Small Plate" designation refers to the relatively modest dimensions of the etching, which measures approximately 9.5 x 6.5 cm. Despite its small size, the work is rich in detail and complexity, reflecting Rembrandt's ability to convey profound narratives within a limited space. The etching is part of a series of works by Rembrandt that explore various scenes from the life of Christ, each characterized by a deep sense of empathy and realism.

"The Circumcision: Small Plate" is held in high regard by art historians and collectors alike, not only for its artistic merit but also for its insight into Rembrandt's early development as an artist. The work is included in several major collections and has been the subject of numerous scholarly studies, which examine its technical aspects, thematic content, and place within Rembrandt's oeuvre.
