"The Presentation in the Temple: Oblong Plate" is an etching by the Dutch master Rembrandt 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-oriented plates.

In this scene, the infant Jesus is being presented to Simeon, as described in the Gospel of Luke, Chapter 2, verses 22-40. The event is significant in Christian tradition as it commemorates the ritual purification of Mary, 40 days after the birth of her son, as well as the fulfillment of the prophecy that Simeon would not die before he had seen the Messiah.

Rembrandt's treatment of the subject is characterized by his masterful use of light and shadow, which adds a dramatic intensity to the scene. The figures are rendered with a high degree of emotion and individuality, a hallmark of Rembrandt's approach to biblical narratives. The etching showcases his skill in handling the etching needle, with fine lines and varied textures that create a sense of depth and three-dimensionality.

"The Presentation in the Temple: Oblong Plate" is considered an important work within Rembrandt's graphic oeuvre, illustrating his innovative approach to composition and his ability to convey complex religious themes with psychological depth and realism. The etching is held in various museum collections and has been the subject of scholarly attention, contributing to the understanding of Rembrandt's techniques and his interpretation of religious iconography.
