This review is from: Rembrandt: The Master and His Workshop: Paintings (National Gallery London Publications) (Hardcover)
The book offers a nice introduction to the artist's life and times. Also provides excellent insights regarding the workshop and distinguishing between Rembrandt's art and that of his pupils. The scholarship is indepth and apt, most of the writers being part of the Rembrandt Project. There are 83 separate plates (most in color) with wonderful essays and explanations.

This review is from: Rembrandt: The Master and His Workshop, 2 Vol. Boxed Set (Hardcover)
Although possibly a bit out of date in 2011, this is still an excellent set. Fine selection of paintings, drawings, and graphic works with varied analysis and good introductry essays.
Keeping it from 5 star in my opinion are numerous inaccuracies and irritating typos that could and should have been picked up by editing prior to publication.

This review is from: Rembrandt: The Master and His Workshop, 2 Vol. Boxed Set (Hardcover)
This box set is the most prized possession on my bookshelf. I could not possibly do the pictures and information in this book justice with words. Some of the most amazing detail photographs of Rembrandt's surfaces that I have ever seen.
