Rembrandt & nature


Rembrandt:
Rembrandt and his pupils also made sketching trips in and around Amsterdam to capture impressions from nature. In this etching, Rembrandt evoked these outings by including a seated draftsman in the right foreground. The exhibition presents drawings of this same cottage and farm buildings from slightly different vantage points. Previously these studies were thought to be by Rembrandt himself. They are now considered to be instances of the pupils and the master drawing the same site side by side.
