EDITORS COMMENTS
This etching by Rembrandt Harmensz. van Rijn, titled "Old man in a fur cap, looking down" transports the viewer back to 1635. The image showcases an elderly man wearing a luxurious fur cap, his gaze directed downwards with an air of weariness and fatigue. Measuring just 11.5 x 10.6 cm, this small yet powerful artwork is housed in the Fondation Glenat in Grenoble, France. The delicate lines and intricate details characteristic of Rembrandt's etchings are on full display here. The subject's long beard adds to his distinguished appearance, while his tired expression evokes a sense of somnolence and drowsiness. It seems as though he may have been caught in a moment of introspection or contemplation. Rembrandt's mastery shines through in this piece, showcasing the baroque style that defined much of his work during the seventeenth century. His ability to capture human emotion and convey it through art is truly remarkable. As one gazes upon this portrait from centuries past, it serves as a reminder of both the passage of time and the universality of human experiences. This old man's weary countenance transcends historical context and resonates with viewers even today. Bridgeman Images has preserved this exquisite print for all to appreciate its beauty and delve into Rembrandt's artistic genius once more.
