"The Presentation in the Temple: Oblong Plate" is an etching by the Dutch master Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn, created in the mid-17th century, around 1640. This work of art depicts the biblical scene of the Presentation of Jesus at the Temple, a subject Rembrandt revisited multiple times throughout his career in various mediums. The etching is notable for its oblong format, which is less common in Rembrandt's oeuvre compared to his more typical portrait or landscape orientations.

In this scene, Rembrandt captures the moment described in the Gospel of Luke 2:22-40, where Mary and Joseph bring the infant Jesus to the Temple in Jerusalem to perform the rituals as prescribed by Jewish law. The etching showcases Rembrandt's skillful use of light and shadow, a technique known as chiaroscuro, to create depth and emphasize the spiritual significance of the event. The figures of Mary, Joseph, the prophetess Anna, and Simeon, who recognizes Jesus as the Messiah, are rendered with a combination of delicate lines and more vigorous hatching, conveying both the tenderness of the moment and the solemnity of the occasion.

The "Presentation in the Temple: Oblong Plate" is a testament to Rembrandt's mastery of etching, a medium that allowed him to achieve remarkable detail and tonal variation. The work is part of a larger body of Rembrandt's religious prints, which were widely disseminated and highly influential in spreading his reputation across Europe during his lifetime and posthumously. Today, this etching is held in various collections and remains an important example of Rembrandt's contribution to the art of printmaking and his enduring engagement with biblical themes.
