"The Descent from the Cross by Torchlight" is a 1654 etching by the Dutch master Rembrandt van Rijn, which depicts the biblical scene of the removal of Christ's body from the cross following his crucifixion. This work is part of a series of etchings, drawings, and paintings by Rembrandt that illustrate the Passion of Christ. In this particular etching, Rembrandt employs strong chiaroscuro and dramatic lighting to enhance the emotional intensity of the scene.

Measuring approximately 21.2 cm x 16.5 cm, the etching is noted for its intricate detail and the way in which Rembrandt captures the somber mood of the event. The use of torchlight not only illuminates the central figures but also creates deep shadows, contributing to the overall sense of depth and volume. The composition is carefully constructed to guide the viewer's eye towards the lifeless body of Christ, which is being lowered with great care and reverence.

Rembrandt's mastery of the etching medium is evident in the varied textures and fine lines that give life to the figures' expressions and the surrounding environment. The work reflects the artist's deep engagement with religious themes and his ability to convey the human and divine aspects of the biblical narrative.

"The Descent from the Cross by Torchlight" is held in high esteem among Rembrandt's graphic oeuvre and is considered an important example of his skill in storytelling through the use of light and shadow. It is housed in several prominent museum collections and continues to be the subject of scholarly study for its artistic and historical significance.
