The Blindness of Tobit: The Larger Plate

Rembrandt van Rijn

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts an old man with a long white beard and hair, wearing a long robe. He stands with his body facing right and his head facing left; his right arm is extended outward and his left arm rests on his stomach. He appears to be wearing slippers. The background shows an interior scene with a chair and a table or other piece of furniture to the right. A doorframe is on the left. The lines are drawn in a detailed, cross-hatching style, giving the image a textured appearance. The overall composition and style suggest it is a print or engraving, likely from the 17th century.
