Rembrandt van Rijn (Aft.) Etching on Paper, The Raising of Lazarus
A magnificent 19th-century impression after the original etching by the legendary Dutch master, Rembrandt van Rijn, The Raising of Lazarus is one of his most dramatic and spiritually evocative compositions. This finely executed example, printed in 1880 on Holland paper, powerfully channels Rembrandt's mastery of light, shadow, and emotion. This scene captures the biblical miracle from the Gospel of John in which Christ raises Lazarus from the dead. Central to the composition is Christ himself, dramatically illuminated, commanding Lazarus to rise while surrounded by awestruck onlookers. Rich cross-hatching, atmospheric depth, and the heightened emotional expressiveness showcase why Rembrandt is revered as one of the greatest printmakers in art history. It is presented in a richly ornamented gold-leaf frame with archival matting and protective glass, professionally mounted and ready to hang. Signed and dated in the plate Rembrandt 1642, this work bears the number No. 47 below the image.
