More about this artwork

In the delicate strokes of ink on paper, Rembrandt van Rijn captures a deeply intimate scene in his drawing "Saskia Lying in Bed." This artwork, dating back to around 1638, provides a glimpse into the personal life of the artist through the portrayal of his beloved wife, Saskia van Uylenburgh.Saskia, often a muse in Rembrandt's works, is depicted in a casual yet poignant pose, lying down with her body slightly turned. Her face is sketched with tenderness, framed by flowing locks and an arm resting lightly over her forehead. This gesture could signify weariness or a moment of deep contemplation, inviting viewers to ponder her thoughts or state of being.The simplicity of the sketch, devoid of elaborate detail, emphasizes the spontaneity and emotional directness of the scene. Rembrandt's mastery in capturing human emotions through mere lines and shades is evident here, where each stroke contributes to a sense of immediacy and closeness."Saskia Lying in Bed" not only showcases Rembrandt's skill as a draughtsman but also reflects his deep affection and attention to subtle moments in his private life.

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.
