Rembrandt worked on his first etchings (1626) in Leiden soon after leaving the studios of his teachers and his eventual international fame would rely on the widespread dissemination of these works. Diverging from his contemporaries, Rembrandt endowed his etchings with a painterly quality achieved through suggestive handling of light and dark. Rembrandt's etchings are necessarily creative endeavors unique in their own aesthetic which devoid of color, unlike his paintings, depended on blacks and whites to create the dynamic statements and scenic tensions that have fascinated viewers over hundreds of years. - Plate: 3 1/2 by 4 1/2 in.
