This etching, "Portret van Rembrandt met bontmuts," is a portrait of the renowned Dutch artist Rembrandt van Rijn, created by an anonymous artist sometime between 1630 and 1700. The work is a small-scale etching, measuring only 52mm by 50mm. It showcases Rembrandt's iconic curly hair and features a dramatic use of light and shadow, characteristic of his self-portraits, even though the identity of the artist remains unknown. This intimate portrait, part of the Rijksmuseum collection, offers a glimpse into Rembrandt's appearance during his early to middle career.
