ABOUT 'REMBRANDTHUIS'
The
Rembrandthuis is a museum about
Rembrandt, created in the house in Amsterdam, Netherlands, where Rembrandt lived
between 1639 and 1648. It is a substantial two-storey dwelling with a stepped
gable. It was built in 1606, in part of Amsterdam occupied by many rich
merchants and artists. In about 1627 it was given a new facade and a triangular
corniced pediment. At the same time another storey was added.
Regarded as one of
the greatest painters of all time, Rembrandt worked in the Dutch Golden Age,
during which Dutch world power, science, culture, political influence, and
commerce were at a peak.
The Rembrandthuis website, which is available in Dutch and English, is organized into the following main parts: Rembrandt Information, Rembrandt Museum, Rembrandt Collection, Life & Work of Rembrandt, Young, Library, Press, Organisation, and Rembrandt Shop.
The section on Rembrandt's Life & Work contains richly illustrated articles on:
Rembrandt Genealogy, Rembrandt's Most Important Works, Pupils & Followers,
Techniques of Etching, and Rembrandt & Amsterdam. The Collections section
contains articles on: Collection History, Graphical Work, Paintings, and
Cess-pit Findings. The online shop sells more
than 100 items, in the following categories: Gifts, Books, Etchings, Textiles,
Paperware, Merchandise, CDs, DVDs, and Contemporary Graphics.
