Painting Description
"The Raising of Lazarus: Small Plate" (b., Holl. 72; H.198; Bb. 42-b) is an etching by the renowned Dutch artist Rembrandt van Rijn, created around 1642. This work is one of Rembrandt's many interpretations of biblical themes, showcasing his exceptional skill in etching and his profound ability to convey dramatic narratives through his art. The etching depicts the miraculous event described in the Gospel of John (11:1-44), where Jesus Christ raises Lazarus from the dead, a story that has been a significant subject in Christian art due to its powerful message of resurrection and divine intervention.
In "The Raising of Lazarus: Small Plate," Rembrandt captures the moment of Lazarus's resurrection with striking emotional intensity and meticulous detail. The composition is centered around the figure of Jesus, who stands with an authoritative gesture, commanding Lazarus to rise. Lazarus, depicted in a semi-recumbent position, begins to emerge from his tomb, his body still wrapped in burial shrouds. The surrounding figures, including Mary and Martha, the sisters of Lazarus, and other onlookers, exhibit a range of emotions from awe to disbelief, enhancing the dramatic impact of the scene.
Rembrandt's use of light and shadow in this etching is particularly noteworthy. He employs chiaroscuro to create a sense of depth and to highlight the central figures, drawing the viewer's attention to the miraculous act taking place. The intricate lines and varying intensities of shading demonstrate Rembrandt's mastery of the etching technique, allowing him to convey texture, volume, and emotion with remarkable precision.
"The Raising of Lazarus: Small Plate" is part of a broader series of works by Rembrandt that explore biblical narratives, reflecting his deep interest in religious subjects and his ability to humanize these stories through his art. This etching not only exemplifies Rembrandt's technical prowess but also his profound ability to evoke the spiritual and emotional dimensions of the biblical text, making it a significant piece in the study of his oeuvre and the history of religious art.
