About the artwork

Christ and the disciples, Rembrandt (1634)

This masterpiece from Rembrandt's early period depicts a nocturnal gathering in which Christ takes centre stage among his apostles. The scene takes place in darkness, punctuated by a heavenly glow around the head of the main figure. As he speaks - his hand resting on his chest - the bystanders show different reactions: some listen intently, others are dozed off, and one figure gapes conspicuously in the direction of the viewer.

The scene captures the crucial moment preceding Judas's betrayal, just before the famous kiss. It is possible that the paper on the right side was once shortened, which would explain why only 11 instead of 12 apostles are visible.

Within Rembrandt's entire oeuvre, this drawing occupies a unique position because of its size and refined execution. The full signature and year 1634 confirm that the artist considered this a finished work. Teylers Museum acquired this remarkable sheet as early as 1796 - before other Dutch museums even existed - for a remarkably modest sum of 60 guilders at an auction where a flower scene by Van Huysum fetched as much as 740 guilders.

From day one, the work served as an inspiration and teaching tool for aspiring artists at the museum, and continues to fascinate visitors today.
