REMBRANDT Harmenszoon van Rijn: Christ Driving the Money-Changers from the Temple

🖼 Christ Driving the Money-Changers from the Temple, c. 1626
Oil on panel
43 × 33 cm
Moscow, Russia

Dramatic chiaroscuro captures Christ expelling merchants from the temple, figures writhing in chaotic diagonal composition across shadowed space. The scene exemplifies Baroque spiritual intensity while exploring themes of religious purification and moral judgment central to Protestant theology.
