"The Little Jewish Bride (Saskia as St. Catherine)" (Bartsch 342) is an etching by the renowned Dutch artist Rembrandt van Rijn, created in the 17th century. This work is part of a series of prints and paintings where Rembrandt depicted his wife, Saskia van Uylenburgh, as various historical, biblical, or allegorical figures. In this particular etching, Saskia is portrayed as Saint Catherine of Alexandria, a Christian saint and martyr who was both revered and romanticized in European art and literature.

The etching is characterized by Rembrandt's masterful use of line and shadow to create depth and texture, a technique that has garnered him acclaim as one of the greatest printmakers in the history of art. Rembrandt's ability to capture the human condition through expressive portraiture is evident in this work, as he imbues the figure of St. Catherine with a sense of dignity and grace, while also maintaining the recognizable features of his beloved wife.

The title "The Little Jewish Bride" suggests a confluence of religious and cultural identities, as Saskia's portrayal as a Christian saint is juxtaposed with her being identified as a Jewish bride, possibly alluding to the complex social and religious dynamics of the period. This etching is catalogued as Bartsch 342, following the numbering system of Adam von Bartsch, an 18th-century Austrian scholar who was one of the first to catalog Rembrandt's prints.

"The Little Jewish Bride" is held in high esteem by art historians and collectors for its intricate detail, emotional resonance, and the insight it provides into Rembrandt's personal life. As with many of Rembrandt's prints, it is a valuable piece for studying the artist's innovative techniques and his contributions to the Dutch Golden Age of painting. The etching remains an important work for understanding the interplay of personal affection and artistic representation in Rembrandt's oeuvre.
