Created in 1635 during the Baroque period, this artwork showcases Rembrandt's exceptional skill in capturing dramatic moments with masterful use of light and shadow. The image portrays Christ standing at the center of a bustling temple courtyard, surrounded by money changers who have turned His Father's house into a marketplace. With an expression of stern determination on His face, Jesus forcefully drives out these merchants, overturning their tables and scattering their coins. The chaos unfolds as startled figures scramble to gather their belongings while others watch in awe or disbelief. Rembrandt's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of this etching.
