Rembrandt: Genius And His Impact

National Gallery of Victoria; Albert Blankert; Rembrandt Harmenszoon Van Rijn; Art Exhibitions Australia Limited; Waanders Publishers; A. Blankert; B. Broos; E. J. Van Der Wetering

Synopsis:
In recent years Rembrandt's oeuvre and influence have been hotly debated. A number of paintings hitherto said to be his have been reattributed by some scholars to pupils or even to obscure followers, while other works have been radically reinterpreted -- what were thought to be depictions of daily life, for example, are now read as biblical narratives. This lavishly illustrated book, containing essays by some of the world's leading scholars on seventeenth-century Dutch art, is the first critical review of the present state Rembrandt studies finds itself in as a result. Rembrandt: A Genius and His Impact is published to accompany a major touring show of paintings, etchings and drawings -- which include important examples by his pupils and followers -- to be seen in Australia in 1997 and 1998.
