Book Description
"This book shows that there are in fact grounds to believe that Rembrandt used members of his direct family as models. In the seventeenth century it was common practice for artists to depict their family members. Rembrandt's mother is one of the best-known models in the history of painting. These are not portraits in the true sense, but penetrating images with religious overtones in which the old woman is usually rendered reading or praying."--BOOK JACKET.

Harmensz van Rijn Rembrandt
Author: Vladimir Loewinson-Lessing
Publisher: Parkstone International
ISBN: 1783104260
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 148
Book Description
A painting by Rembrandt is a living entity that exists according to its own laws, which reflects the multiplicity of the thoughts and emotions in the painter’s mind. Men and their mental condition: that is the fundamental issue the artist tries to solve throughout his life. Tormented by family problems, he took shelter in painting, which became even better as things got worse, as if depicted by a visionary. Hiding his anxiety in the optimism of his themes and in the strength of dark colours, he was ultimately victorious.
