Painting Description
"Samuel Manasseh Ben Israel, Jewish Author (Bartsch 269)" is an etching by the renowned Dutch artist Rembrandt van Rijn, created in 1636. The work is a portrait of Manasseh ben Israel, a notable Portuguese-Jewish rabbi, scholar, and writer who was a prominent figure in the Jewish community of Amsterdam during the 17th century. Manasseh ben Israel is best known for his efforts to persuade Oliver Cromwell to readmit Jews to England, from which they had been expelled in 1290.
The etching is part of Rembrandt's series of portraits of Jewish figures, which reflect his interest in the Jewish community of Amsterdam and his engagement with biblical and religious subjects. In this portrait, Rembrandt captures the intellectual presence of Manasseh ben Israel with a sense of intimacy and psychological depth, characteristics that are hallmarks of the artist's portraiture.
The artwork measures 152 x 130 mm and is signed and dated by Rembrandt. It is listed as number 269 in Adam von Bartsch's catalog of Rembrandt's prints. The etching is notable for its fine detail and the use of light and shadow to sculpt the subject's features, demonstrating Rembrandt's mastery of the etching medium.
"Samuel Manasseh Ben Israel, Jewish Author (Bartsch 269)" is held in various museum collections and has been the subject of scholarly attention for its artistic merit and its significance in the context of Rembrandt's body of work and the cultural history of the period. The portrait remains an important example of Rembrandt's portraiture and his engagement with the Jewish community, as well as a testament to the legacy of Manasseh ben Israel as a key figure in Jewish history.
