About the book
Rembrandt presents the life and work of the Dutch painter, printmaker and draughtsman Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn, who lived from 1606 to 1669 during the Dutch Golden Age. It surveys his output of roughly three hundred paintings, three hundred etchings and many drawings, and notes how widely his subjects range, from portraits and landscapes to biblical, mythological and historical scenes. It describes his youthful success, his reliance on Italian and Flemish influences despite never travelling abroad, his twenty years as a teacher, and the hardship of his later years. His self-portraits form an intimate autobiography.
