"The Circumcision: Small Plate" is an etching by the Dutch master Rembrandt van Rijn, created in 1630. This work is part of a series of etchings that depict scenes from the New Testament, showcasing Rembrandt's skill in capturing religious narratives with emotional depth and intricate detail. The etching measures approximately 9.8 cm by 6.5 cm, making it one of the smaller plates within Rembrandt's oeuvre.

The artwork illustrates the biblical scene of the circumcision of Christ, an event traditionally celebrated in the Christian liturgical calendar on January 1st. Rembrandt's depiction is set in a modest interior, likely inspired by 17th-century Dutch homes rather than a historical Jewish setting. The composition focuses on the infant Jesus and the figures performing the ritual, surrounded by onlookers. The scene is rendered with fine lines and careful attention to the effects of light and shadow, a technique that Rembrandt mastered and which contributes to the emotional intensity of the moment.

"The Circumcision: Small Plate" is notable for its intimate scale and the artist's ability to convey a sense of solemnity and reverence appropriate to the subject matter. Rembrandt's etchings were highly regarded during his lifetime and have continued to be celebrated for their technical innovation and expressive power. This particular work is an example of Rembrandt's early etchings, which were instrumental in establishing his reputation as one of the foremost printmakers of his time.

The etching is held in various collections around the world and has been the subject of scholarly study for its artistic and historical significance. It reflects Rembrandt's deep engagement with religious themes and his ongoing exploration of human emotion and the human condition through the medium of printmaking.
