Painting Description
"The Death of the Virgin" is a 1639 etching by the Dutch master Rembrandt van Rijn, catalogued as Bartsch 99, Hollstein 161, and Bjorklund 39-a, reflecting its listings in various authoritative print catalogues. This work is part of Rembrandt's extensive oeuvre of etchings, which are highly regarded for their innovative use of the medium and their emotional depth. The etching depicts the somber moment of the Virgin Mary's passing, surrounded by the apostles and other figures, a common theme in Christian art that has been interpreted by numerous artists throughout history.
In Rembrandt's interpretation, the scene is rendered with a dramatic use of light and shadow, a technique known as chiaroscuro, which was a hallmark of his work. The artist's mastery of etching allowed him to achieve a remarkable level of detail and a sense of intimacy in the portrayal of the figures' expressions and the textures of their garments. "The Death of the Virgin" stands out as an example of Rembrandt's skill in conveying the emotional gravity of religious scenes and his ability to humanize biblical events, making them accessible and poignant to viewers.
The etching measures approximately 41.5 x 31.5 cm, which is relatively large for a print of this period. It is part of a series of works by Rembrandt that explore themes of mortality and spirituality, reflecting the artist's personal and artistic preoccupations throughout his career. Today, "The Death of the Virgin" is held in the collections of several major museums and is studied as an important piece within Rembrandt's body of graphic works, contributing to our understanding of his artistic legacy and the development of printmaking in the 17th century.
