White, Christopher and Quentin Buvelot — Rembrandt by Himself

London, The National Gallery, 1999. Softcover. Illustrated Color wraps. 272 pp. illustrations (some color). From the exhibition held in London at The National Gallery, June 9 to Sept. 5, 1999 and in The Hague; with four critical essays, the catalogue, a section of pupils of Rembrandt, a concordance, and more. "Rembrandt van Rijn (1606-1669) made hundreds of paintings, etchings and drawings, covering a broad range of subject matter. The proportion of these images that can be classified as self portraits is exceptional. All the surviving examples, many of which have long been among the most celebrated images in Western Art, are described and illustrated here, together with copies after lost pieces. The development of Rembrandt's style from his youth in Leiden to the last years in Amsterdam, and the gradual ageing of his features over the years, are both vividly revealed."--Jacket. VG+ .
