Painting Description
The Hundred Guilder Print is an esteemed work by the Dutch master Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn, created around 1647–1649. This etching, also known as "Christ Healing the Sick," "Christ with the Sick around Him, Receiving Little Children," or "The Hundred Guilder Print," stands out as one of Rembrandt's most celebrated and intricate prints. The name of the piece is derived from a legend that Rembrandt sold the print for 100 guilders, an exceptionally high sum at the time, reflecting its extraordinary value and the high regard in which it was held.
Measuring approximately 280 x 390 mm, this etching is renowned for its complex composition and the masterful use of light and shadow, which is characteristic of Rembrandt's work. The print depicts multiple scenes from the Gospel of Matthew (Matthew 19:13–26), where Christ is portrayed addressing various groups and individuals, including the sick, the poor, the wealthy, and his disciples. The central theme revolves around Christ's teachings on wealth, piety, and the entrance into the Kingdom of God.
Rembrandt's skillful handling of the etching needle produced a print with varied textures and depths, from the delicate lines of the background to the rich, dark tones of the foreground, creating a sense of three-dimensionality and movement. The Hundred Guilder Print is a prime example of Rembrandt's innovative approach to etching, where he treated the medium with the freedom and expressiveness of a drawing.
The print is held in high esteem not only for its artistic brilliance but also for its theological depth, as it visually synthesizes key Christian teachings into a single, harmonious composition. Today, impressions of The Hundred Guilder Print are housed in various museums and collections around the world, and it continues to be a subject of study for its artistic, cultural, and religious significance.
