About the Event
Lecturer Justin Reay
Location Hybrid (in-person and online)
Rembrandt (1606-1669) was a painter and print-maker, engaging in all genres from religious subjects to landscapes, large-scale group portraits to intimate domestic scenes. His drawings and etchings are masterly expositions of line combined with intense tonality while his easel paintings exude passion, bravura impasto, subtle glazes and the highest degree of skill. This talk concentrates on the revealing portraits and painfully honest self-portraits which helped forge his reputation as one of the finest artists of any era.
