This publication offers surprising insights into all eighteen paintings in the museum's holdings that were once or still are called a 'Rembrandt'. These include iconic works like The Anatomy Lesson of Dr Nicolaes Tulp and the late Self-Portrait, as well as pictures that are no longer attributed to the master himself. Major figures from the past, such as Stadholder William V, King William I and museum director Abraham Bredius, help to tell the story of how these paintings have been judged over the years and how the image of Rembrandt is constantly changing.
This book also provides in-depth discussions of each of the paintings and their place within the master's oeuvre.
