Rembrandt, Self-portrait, 1657


An exibition entitled Rembrandt in America will be helld at The Cleveland Museum of Art from February 19 through May 28, 2012.

Rembrandt in America is the first major exhibition to explore in depth the collecting history of Rembrandt paintings in America. Consisting of over 50 works, the exhibition brings together autograph works by Rembrandt as well as others thought to be by the artist when they entered American collections but whose attributions can no longer be maintained. The exhibition therefore surveys the long career of Rembrandt as a painter, including his studio and a broader network of adapters, followers, and copyists.
