Rembrandt Van Rijn

1606-1669

Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn (1606-1669) was a Dutch Baroque painter, printmaker, and draughtsman, widely regarded as one of the greatest visual artists in the history of art. Born in Leiden, Netherlands, Rembrandt was the ninth child of a well-to-do family. He studied art under Jacob van Swanenburg and Pieter Lastman before establishing himself as an independent artist in Leiden and later in Amsterdam.

Rembrandt is renowned for his masterful use of light and shadow, his deeply psychological and emotional portraits, and his innovative approach to printmaking. His most famous works include The Night Watch, The Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Nicolaes Tulp, and his numerous self-portraits, which provide an intimate glimpse into the artist's life and inner world.

Throughout his career, Rembrandt produced approximately 300 paintings, 300 etchings, and 2,000 drawings. He also taught many important Dutch painters and left an indelible mark on the art world. Despite facing personal tragedies and financial difficulties in his later years, Rembrandt continued to create powerful and moving works of art until his death in 1669. Today, he is celebrated as a master of the Dutch Golden Age and a timeless icon of European art.
