Painting Description
"The Raising of Lazarus: Large Plate" is an etching and drypoint created by the renowned Dutch artist Rembrandt van Rijn, dating from around 1632. This work is one of Rembrandt's most celebrated prints and exemplifies his mastery in the medium of etching. The subject matter is derived from the New Testament, specifically the Gospel of John (11:1-44), which recounts the miraculous resurrection of Lazarus by Jesus Christ. This biblical narrative has been a popular theme in Christian art, symbolizing themes of faith, resurrection, and divine power.
Rembrandt's interpretation of the scene is both dramatic and intimate, capturing the moment when Jesus commands Lazarus to rise from the dead. The composition is marked by its strong chiaroscuro, a technique that Rembrandt skillfully employed to create a striking contrast between light and shadow. This use of light not only highlights the central figures but also adds a sense of depth and three-dimensionality to the print. The expressions and gestures of the figures are rendered with remarkable detail and emotional intensity, drawing the viewer into the miraculous event.
The etching measures approximately 37.8 x 26.7 cm (14.9 x 10.5 inches) and is known for its intricate details and the dynamic interplay of lines and textures. Rembrandt's innovative use of drypoint, where the design is scratched directly onto the plate, contributes to the rich, velvety lines that characterize the print. This technique, combined with the etching process, allowed Rembrandt to achieve a high level of detail and tonal variation.
"The Raising of Lazarus: Large Plate" is considered a significant work within Rembrandt's oeuvre, reflecting his deep engagement with biblical themes and his exceptional skill as a printmaker. The print is held in high regard by art historians and collectors alike and is housed in various prestigious collections around the world, including the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam and the British Museum in London.
