Black and white etching of a scene depicting a group gathered around a baby. The baby lies on a surface, surrounded by adults, some of whom are looking on. One man in the foreground on the right appears to be kneeling. A figure on the left sits on the floor. In the background, a figure on a raised platform holds a staff. The room has an arched ceiling and appears dimly lit. The style is highly detailed with many lines. The image is by Rembrandt van Rijn and is titled "The Circumcision: Small Plate".
