Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn


Rembrandt van Rijn. one of the greatest artist ever. This man new the human anatomy like not other, and with a swift stroke of his brush, he could draw the most unbelievable figure studies. I find a lot of his drawing remind me of the Japaese art called sumi-e Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn; (15 July 1606 – 4 October 1669) was a Dutch painter and etcher. He is generally considered one of the greatest painters and print makers in European art and the most important in Dutch history.[2] His contributions to art came in a period of great wealth and cultural achievement that historians call the Dutch Golden Age when Dutch Golden Age painting, although in many ways antithetical to the Baroque style that dominated Europe, was extremely prolific and innovative.
