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. |
