The Crucifixion: Small Plate is a 1635 ink by Rembrandt, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This etching depicts a somber scene of the crucifixion, with a central figure on a cross surrounded by a group of people. The figure on the cross is shown with outstretched arms, while the people around him are dressed in robes and appear to be mourning or praying. In the background, there are some trees and buildings visible, but they are not the main focus of the image. The etching is done in a style that emphasizes contrast and texture, with bold lines and shading that create a sense of depth and emotion. The overall mood of the image is one of solemnity and reverence. The artist who created this etching is Rembrandt van Rijn.
Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn (15 July 1606 – 4 October 1669), known mononymously as Rembrandt, was a Dutch Golden Age painter, printmaker, and draughtsman.
