Painting Description
"Der Zinsgroschen" (The Tribute Money) is a renowned painting by the Dutch master Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn, created in approximately 1629. This artwork is a striking example of Rembrandt's early work, showcasing his extraordinary ability to convey complex biblical narratives with profound emotional depth and technical mastery. The painting is based on the biblical story from the Gospel of Matthew (22:15-22), where Pharisees attempt to entrap Jesus by asking if it is lawful to pay taxes to Caesar. Jesus responds by asking whose likeness is on the coin used for the tax, leading to the famous reply, "Render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and unto God the things that are God's."
Measuring 68 cm by 92.5 cm, the painting is executed in oil on canvas. It is distinguished by its dramatic use of light and shadow, a technique known as chiaroscuro, which Rembrandt mastered early in his career and would come to define his later works. The composition focuses on the moment of Jesus' response, capturing the varied reactions of the figures around him with remarkable psychological insight.
"Der Zinsgroschen" is celebrated for its intricate depiction of human expressions and the subtle interplay of light, which not only illuminates the scene but also highlights the spiritual significance of the moment. Rembrandt's skillful handling of the narrative, his attention to detail, and his ability to convey the moral and theological implications of the story make this painting a pivotal work in his oeuvre.
The painting is a testament to Rembrandt's early engagement with religious themes, reflecting his deep interest in portraying the human condition through biblical stories. "Der Zinsgroschen" remains an important work for scholars and enthusiasts of Rembrandt's art, offering insight into the artist's development and his approach to narrative painting in the 17th century. Its current location is in the Gemäldegalerie, Dresden, Germany, where it continues to be a subject of admiration and study for its artistic and historical significance.
