Rembrandt van Rijn (1606-1669) nunca viajó más allá de las fronteras de los Países Bajos, pero sus prodigiosas obras de pintura, dibujo y grabado revolucionaron el arte occidental. Su canon de escenas religiosas, históricas y seculares sólo es comparable con su inmensa serie de retratos y autorretratos.

El arte de Rembrandt captura textura, luz y una intensa percepción psicológica. Sus figuras están iluminadas sobre fondos oscuros y representadas con aguda observación. Tanto los personajes bíblicos como los mecenas y los ciudadanos están dotados de rasgos detallados y emociones enigmáticas, lo que aporta incluso a historias familiares como las de David y Betsabé un nuevo realismo. Rembrandt también dejó un extenso registro de autorretratos, que recorrió su vida desde la juventud hasta la muerte. Durante la Edad de Oro de los Países Bajos, Rembrandt fue alabado por sus mecenas, aunque su verdadera motivación era la fascinación por el espíritu humano.

En este libro, exploramos algunas de sus obras clave para conocer sus técnicas, inspiraciones y logros formidables. Desde la barroca Fiesta de Belsasar hasta la mundialmente famosa Ronda de Noche , descubrimos un mundo de tonos profundos y ricos, un dibujo magistral y una notable sensibilidad por la condición humana.

    About the Artist

    Rembrandt van Rijn

    Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn (1606-1669), widely known as Rembrandt, was a Dutch painter and etcher of the Baroque era. Born on July 15, 1606, in Leiden, Netherlands, Rembrandt is considered one of the greatest artists in history. Renowned for his mastery of light and shadow, his profound understanding of human emotions, and his technical prowess, Rembrandt's contributions to art are unparalleled.

    During his career, Rembrandt produced an extensive body of work encompassing portraits, landscapes, historical and biblical scenes, as well as numerous self-portraits. His paintings are characterized by their realistic depiction, nuanced expressions, and rich, atmospheric textures. Through his innovative use of chiaroscuro, Rembrandt was able to create a dramatic interplay of light and darkness, lending a profound depth to his compositions.

    Rembrandt's artistic achievements extended beyond his paintings. As an etcher, he revolutionized the medium, pushing its boundaries and elevating it to a fine art form. His etchings display remarkable skill, capturing intricate details and showcasing his ability to convey emotions and narratives in a more intimate and accessible manner.

    Despite facing financial challenges later in life, Rembrandt's artistic legacy remains unparalleled. His works continue to inspire artists and art enthusiasts worldwide, with their timeless beauty and profound humanity. Rembrandt's impact on the art world endures, cementing his position as one of the most celebrated and influential artists of the Renaissance period.
