Michael Bockemuhl: Rembrandt
Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn (Leiden, July 15 1606 – Amsterdam, 4 October 1669) was a Baroque painter; is the strongest and most versatile personality in Dutch art 17. century.
Having achieved success as a young painter, the later years of his life were marked by the tragedy of financial difficulties. Despite this, his paintings and graphics were popular throughout his life, and his reputation as a painter remained untarnished, and he apprenticed almost all the important Dutch painters for twenty years. Rembrandt's greatest innovation was manifested in his portraits of contemporaries, self-portraits and illustrations of biblical motifs. His self-portraits form a unique intimate biography in which the artist observed himself without vanity and completely honestly.
