More about this artwork

We are delighted to present "Old Man with a Divided Fur Cap" (1640), an exquisite etching by the celebrated Dutch master, Rembrandt van Rijn. In this compelling work, the artist vividly portrays an elderly man, his face full of character and wisdom, gazing thoughtfully out of the frame. This subject, depicted with a richly textured beard and an elaborate fur cap that forms two peaks, displays Rembrandt's exceptional skill in capturing the essence of human emotion and the intricate detail of texture.Rembrandt's mastery of light and dark is evident in the way the soft light touches the edges of the old man's face, highlighting his features with a gentle grace, and casting much of his figure into shadow. The man's eyes hold a contemplative gaze, as if reflecting on a lifetime of experiences, which engages the viewer in a silent, introspective dialogue.This etching not only showcases Rembrandt’s unparalleled skill in technique and his deep understanding of human nature but also serves as a powerful example of portraiture that transcends the ordinary, inviting us into the reflective world of its subject.

Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn was a Dutch draughtsman, painter, and printmaker. An innovative and prolific master in three media, he is generally considered one of the greatest visual artists in the history of art and the most important in Dutch art history. Unlike most Dutch masters of the 17th century, Rembrandt's works depict a wide range of style and subject matter, from portraits and self-portraits to landscapes, genre scenes, allegorical and historical scenes, and biblical and mythological themes as well as animal studies.
