Happy birthday, Rembrandt.

Rembrandt, Laughing, 1628



Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn was born on this date in 1606.

Of course you will say that I ought to be practical and ought to try and paint the way they want me to paint. Well, I will tell you a secret. I have tried and I have tried very hard, but I can't do it. I just can't do it! And that is why I am just a little crazy. 

- Rembrandt
