Woman with a Pink c. early 1660s

"Woman with a Pink" is a portrait of a woman in a dark, richly colored palette, characteristic of the Dutch Golden Age master Rembrandt van Rijn. Created in the early 1660s, it showcases the artist's mastery of chiaroscuro, using strong contrasts of light and shadow to create dramatic depth. The woman, possibly a member of Rembrandt's family or a patron, is adorned with pearls and a luxurious red gown, subtly suggesting her social status and the artist's ability to capture both physical and emotional likeness.
