| | REMBRANDT - LoveToKnow Article on REMBRANDT |
 | | Rembrandt touched no side of art without setting his mark on it, whether in still life, as in his dead birds or the Slaughtered Ox of the Louvre (with its repetitions at Glasgow and Budapest), or in his drawings of elephants and lions, all of which are instinct with life. | | | REMBRANDT HARMENS VAN RUN, Dutch painter, was born in Leiden on the 15th of July i6o. | | | Rembrandts and doubtless Saskias means were tied up in his house and in his large collection of valuable pictures, and we find Rembrandt borrowing considerable sums of money on the security of his house to keep things going. |

| | When Rembrandt became established as a painter, he began to teach and continued teaching art throughout his life. | | | Each man is painted with the care that Rembrandt gave to single portraits, yet the composition is such that the separate figures are second in interest to the effect of the whole. | | | The greatest artist of the Dutch school, he was a master of light and shadow whose paintings, drawings, and etchings made him a giant in the history of art. |

| | CGFA- Bio: Rembrandt |
| | Rembrandt was a Dutch baroque artist who ranks as one of the greatest painters in the history of Western art. | | | Rembrandt moved to Amsterdam in 1631; his marriage in 1634 to Saskia van Uylenburgh, the cousin of a successful art dealer, enhanced his career, bringing him in contact with wealthy patrons who eagerly commissioned portraits. | | | His full name was Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn, and he possessed a profound understanding of human nature that was matched by a brilliant technique- not only in painting but in drawing and etching- and his work made an enormous impact on his contemporaries and influenced the style of many later artists. |

| | Rembrandt's genius as an etcher lies in his recognition that this medium responds best to the light touch of a draftsman, not the heavy hand of a professional printmaker. | | | The extraordinarily high regard Rembrandt's contemporaries had for his etchings was understandable, for in less than four decades he had pushed the relatively new medium to its expressive limits. | | | Rembrandt's etching style was as variable as his technique. |

He began using canvas rather than panel, experimented with paints of different fluidities, and explored etching. |
