Figurehead of Rembrandt c. 1938

Frances Cohen's "Figurehead of Rembrandt" (c. 1938) is a striking portrait of the famous Dutch painter. The sculpture depicts Rembrandt in a three-quarter pose, gazing upwards with a contemplative expression. His clothing is detailed and realistic, with a lace collar and a high-waisted doublet. The work is a testament to Cohen's skill as a sculptor and her admiration for Rembrandt, who is known for his expressive portraits and masterful use of light. This piece is notable for its realistic depiction of Rembrandt, particularly his signature ruff collar.
