Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn is generally considered one of the greatest painters in European art history and the most important in Dutch history.

Dutch master Rembrandt. Some years ago it was proved to have been painted by someone else. Some people would say that the truth about this painting changed. Do you agree? Explain. The book tells us that truth is the accurate representation of objective reality‚ and that our assumptions‚ and wishes do not affect the reality of the facts. With that being said; I would say yes the truth about the painting changed. Since there is hard evidence that proves it was not the work of Rembrandt then‚ the truth

4 self-portraits of Rembrandt’s to discuss- his Self-Portrait in the Studio in 1628‚ his Self-Portrait with Saskia in 1635‚ his Self-portrait in 1658 and his Self-Portrait as Zeuxis in 1662. I chose these 4 because of their representation of how Rembrandt saw himself through the ages and how his style of painting evolved. In his first self-portrait in 1628 he shows himself in the background of the painting and not as important as the canvas and his work. He paints himself in the traditional frock

The post-1642 Rembrandt would shape into the "genuine" Rembrandt‚ out and out at one with his inward character and an astounding representation of a misinterpreted virtuoso. As workmanship history power Jan Emmens battled in his book Rembrandt and the Rules of Art‚ the arrangement of this myth owes much to a standard predictable with life show that may be known as the "Saul-Paul

The paintings of Chuck Close and Rembrandt bear several similarities. Both convey the realism art style‚ although Close’s painting is super realism. There are also some important differences between the paintings. The most obvious one is the color. Close’s painting is done using tones of black‚ gray and white; this gives the painting a black-and-white photograph look. Rembrandt’s painting‚ on the other hand‚ has orange and is darker. The style of the paintings tell the viewer a lot about the changing

Diego Velázquez and Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn are two of the forefront artists of the Baroque period‚ Velazquez a catholic and Rembrandt a protestant. Looking at Velazquez’s Self Portrait (c 1640) and Rembrandt’s Self Portrait at the Age of 34 (1640) you can see their similarities in honesty‚ chiaroscuro‚ and naturalism. Both works have such an honesty sincerity in the expression of brushwork and detail. Each has a masterful execution of chiaroscuro‚ but Velazquez’s Self Portrait takes it a

Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Nicolaes Tulp‚ appears to be a simple commissioned group portrait of the Surgeon Guild. However‚ there is much more to this painting than meets the eye. In reality‚ this portrait has an underlining motif about God and one’s self. Rembrandt sees death as something beautiful rather than a topic to avoid because man is the product of God’s greatness. Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Nicolaes Tulp uses a strong composition‚ and focal point‚ and variation in figures. The composition is tight and

No artist has left a loftier or more penetrating personal testament than Rembrandt van Rijn. In more than 90 portraits of himself that date from the outset of his career in the 1620s to the year of his death in 1669‚ he created an autobiography in art that is the equal of the finest ever produced in literature even of the intimately analytical Confessions of St. Augustine.1 Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn (15 July 1606– 4 October 1669) was a Dutch painter and etcher. He is generally considered
