Rembrandt’s Journey: Painter, Draftsman, Etcher

About This Item

Rembrandt changed the course of art history not only as a painter, but also as a draftsman and printmaker. Rembrandt’s Journey unfolds the richness and diversity of his prints in the context of his paintings and drawings. Illustrated with nearly 200 works in all three media, this book traces the remarkable evolution of Rembrandt’s art over four decades, from the robust physical energy of his early productions to the breadth and meditative beauty of his later work. It encompasses the wide range of his vision, from the tragic and spiritual to the earthy and comic. And it gives full due to Rembrandt’s narrative sensibilities, showing how he endowed his figures with unprecedented psychological nuance. Published to accompany the first comprehensive American survey of his work in decades, Rembrandt’s Journey offers a fresh view of this endlessly familiar, yet still unknown, artist.
