Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn (July 15, 1606– October 4, 1669) is
generally considered one of the greatest painters and printmakers in
European art history and the most important in Dutch history. His
contributions to art came in a period that historians call the Dutch
Golden Age (roughly coinciding with the seventeenth century), in which
Dutch world power, political influence, science, commerce, and culture
— particularly painting — reached their pinnacle.
"No artist ever combined more delicate skill with more energy and
power," states Chambers' Biographical Dictionary. "His treatment of
mankind is full of human sympathy" (J.O. Thorne: 1962).

Who2
Biography:Rembrandt
van Rijn, Artist
- Born: 15 July 1606
- Birthplace: Leiden, Netherlands
-
Died: 4 October 1669
- Best Known As: The Dutch master known for his self-portraits
One of the great Dutch painters and printmakers of the 17th century,
Rembrandt van Rijn is best known for his expressive use of light and
shadow (also called chiaroscuro) in his many portraits. Raised in
Leiden, he studied with Pieter Lastman (1583-1633) in Amsterdam, then
returned to Leiden around 1625 and set up shop as a teacher and portrait
artist. Sometime between 1630 and 1632 Rembrandt relocated to
Amsterdam, where he spent the rest of his career. Though he had his
detractors (some of whom considered him coarse and "low born"),
Rembrandt was successful and famous during his lifetime, though he fell
on financial hard times in his later years. He was a master printer and
produced hundreds of group portraits and historical paintings, including
The Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Tulp (1632), The Military Company
of Captain Frans Banning Cocq (1642) and Aristotle with a Bust of
Homer (1653). His portraits -- including a lifelong trail of
intriguing and rather frank self-portraits -- reveal his interest in
psychological study and continue to be admired as landmarks in Western
art.
The Military Company of Captain Frans Banning Cocq is also
known as "The Night Watch" because it was thought the painting depicted a
nighttime scene. When the painting was cleaned in the 1940s it became
obvious that it depicted a daytime scene... He married Saskia van
Ulenburgh (also Uylenburgh) in 1634. They had a son, Titus, in 1641, and
Saskia died in 1642; both Titus and Saskia appear in many of
Rembrandt's paintings.
Britannica
Concise Encyclopedia:Rembrandt
(Harmenszoon) van Rijn
(born July 15, 1606, Leiden, Neth. — died Oct.
4, 1669, Amsterdam) Dutch painter and etcher. As a young man, he was
apprenticed to masters in Leiden and in Amsterdam. His early paintings
show his interest in the "spotlight effects" of light and shadow that
were to dominate his later paintings. Early in his career he began the
studies of his own face and the more-formal self-portraits that make up
almost a tenth of his painted and etched work. After moving to Amsterdam
about 1631, he quickly became the city's most fashionable portrait
painter and a popular teacher. In 1632 he produced the celebrated Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Nicolaes Tulp. Yearning for recognition
as a biblical and mythological painter, in 1635 he produced The
Sacrifice of Isaac and in 1636 Danaë. In 1634 he
married Saskia van Uylenburgh (d. 1642), a woman of property. That same
year he completed his largest painting, the extraordinary but
controversial The Militia Company of Captain Frans Banning
Cocq (known as The Night Watch), which was a watershed
in his life and art. For unknown reasons, his portrait commissions
thereafter declined, and he began to focus his attention on etching, a
medium in which he was self-taught. In 1656, after transferring most of
his property to his son, he applied for bankruptcy. In his last decade
he treated biblical subjects like portraits and also continued to paint
self-portraits. These late works exhibit a lively brushwork and a new
treatment of light. In addition to being an innovator, he was an acute
observer of life and a sensitive renderer of those observations in his
drawings, etchings, and paintings. The human figure, Rembrandt's central
subject, contributes to the sense of a shared dialogue between viewer
and artist, the foundation of Rembrandt's greatness and of his
popularity today. For more information on Rembrandt (Harmenszoon) van Rijn, visit
