Rembrandt
is considered a master of Western Art. With more than
600 paintings and about 2,000 drawings and etchings, (and
even more that have been lost as time passed) he is one
of the most prolific artists of all time. The variety
of the subjects used in his work is amazing when compared
to others who specialized in only certain types of painting.
Nudes, landscapes, portraits, everyday scenes, birds and
animals, historical and mythological figures, biblical
subjects, and self-portraits are all to be found in his
creations.
Rembrandt was born in The Netherlands on July 15, 1606.
His education was not neglected, but the university bored
him and he later dropped out to study art. He began with
a local teacher and then left to study in Amsterdam where
he mastered his lessons in six months. He returned to
his hometown and at only 22 was already taking on students.
