5.0 out of 5 stars
Before Koons and Hirst, there was Rembrandt...,
By Claude Reich (Florianopolis, Brazil and Paris, France) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Rembrandt's Enterprise: The Studio and the Market (Paperback)
This book is at the same time erudite and easy to read. It studies Rembrandt's relationship to his art (his peculiar touch, his brushstrokes), to the theater (its influence on the scenes depicted in his paintings), to his studio (the part of his assistants, his attitude towards them) and to the art market (he was famously said to love only three things, "freedom, art and money"). Well served by twelve coloured close-ups presented at the beginning of the book as well as by numerous black and white illustrations, the text is riveting, full of insightful information and analyses. I own many books on the Dutch master and this one is undoubtedly a favourite.

Are you tired of the fuss about real or false Rembrandts? Then read prof. Svetlana book. First of all, Rembrandt was allways interested in such confusion and gladly endorsed it. If he could get a fee for all false stuff under his name or painted by his pupils, that would be fine. So, dont worry, in the end, all the Rembrandts in one way or another are authentic...
