Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Etchings of Rembrandt The systematic study of the works of a great etcher is seldom undertaken by lovers of art who are not led to it by the requirements of a critic or a collector, and yet this systematic study, though it may seem tedious to the amateur, and pedantic to the-artist, and though it may be regarded with the most complete indifference by the public generally, has its own rewards to offer in the additional clearness which it imparts to the whole subject, and in the enhanced interest that every separate etching gains from being known in connection with the rest. This kind of study would be impossible for us without the help of the minutely detailed information that the zealous industry of catalogue makers has accumulated for our use. We are, indeed, infinitely their debtors, for without their labours of love, extending, in some cases, over many years, and rewarded only by the appreciation of the few who know all that such toil involves, the student could never gain a comprehensive View of the total production of a great artist. Even if he had access to a complete collection, it would be impossible for him to know that it was complete.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rembrandt: A Romance of Holland Peter, said Rembrandt, stand there just where you are. Never mind about the boat for a while. I want to make a sketch of you in this brilliant light. The surprised bargeman thought his passenger was demented. Why in the world should anyone want to paint his homely features! Nevertheless he did as he was bid, and stood there, rope in hand, until the artist, with a few swift, sure touches, completed the sketch.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rembrandt, the Jews and the Bible These considerations influenced me to prepare the following pages, which do not present the whole of Rembrandt, but merely that phase of his life and work which has bearing upon his relation to the Jews and to their Holy Scriptures. This phase, however, should prove the more deeply satisfying to us, because it lay not upon the periphery of his personality, but at its very core. For this reason I offer the present work to the consideration of those who. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rembrandt: His Life, His Work, and His Time I had better point out at once such changes as it has been thought desirable to make in placing before the English-reading public Monsieur Michel's comprehensive book on that pictorial artist whom all schools of criticism unite to honour. Those changes will be found to consist almost entirely in that which concerns the illustration, for in regard to the literary work the Editor's duty to the public and to the writer was mainly to present Monsieur Michel's substance and style in the best English at the command of a translator of taste, and the English of Miss Simmonds has surely done as little violence as possible to the French of the Frenchman. In aiming to be correct, Miss Simmonds has not lost sight of the necessity of being readable. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Masters in Art, Vol. 1: Part 6; Rembrandt And if, seeking to discover the means by which such marvels are produced, we look into the picture for an explanation, do we find it by saying, as so many critics have con tented themselves with saying, that Rembrandt was a consummate master of chiaroscuro? Not if we mean by chiaroscuro the play and opposition of light and shadow, in which dark waves, shaded, deepened, thickened, revolve around bright centres which are thereby made to appear more distinct and radiant, and yet in which the darkness is transparent, the half-darkness easy to pierce, and even the strongest colors have a sort of penetrability which prevents their being black. This form of expression was by no means either the invention or the exclusive quality of Rembrandt. All the great Italians, notably Leonardo and Titian, have used it; nay, Rembrandt in his other self the realist, the exterior man - used it consummately. Indeed it was the native and necessary form in which Rembrandt, in either of his personalities, always expressed his ideas. Surely this does not explain the mystery. But let us take a step further: let us admit (and it is undeniably true) that this ideal ist, this dreaming Rembrandt, was more than a mere master of chiaroscuro, - that he was the greatest master of it that has ever lived, and that because it was so intimately adapted to his genius, he developed it into a means of expression of which it had never before nor has it since been capable. Admit that under his hand, misty, veiled, discreet. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Rembrandt His Life His Work and His Time Vol 1 of 2 Classic Reprint written by Emile Michel and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-04 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rembrandt, His Life, His Work, and His Time, Vol. 1 of 2 The difficulties of reproduction were, of course, infinitely greater with the pictures. Photography is not well adapted to the rendering of those brown and golden tones which predominate in Rembrandt's works. It was necessary to choose proofs combining clearness in the shadows with exactness in the suggestion of values. Some of the examples were borrowed from the collection of Messrs. Braun and Co. Mr. Hanfstaengl of Munich also allowed the free use of all his Rembrandt reproductions. I am indebted to Mr. Baer of Rotterdam for the fragment of the Paeifieatioa of Holland, the grisaille of the Boymans Museum, and to Mr. Hoffmann, Director of the Darmstadt Museum, for a photograph of the Flagellation in his gallery, which is now published for the first time. The courtesy of Lord Warwick, of Count Orloff Davidoff, and of Messrs. Ed. Andre, Haro, and R. Kann, has further enabled me to reproduce other pictures never before published. Finally M. Sedelmeyer, to whom I here make most grateful acknowledgment, furnished me with photographs of several among the numerous works of Rembrandt which have been in his possession from time to time.

The etching of Rembrandt's Mother turned to the Right is one of his most beau tiful things, and reminds us that it was Rem brandt more than any other artist who taught us what beauty and dignity there are in the faces of old people. The earliest period was also characterized by spirited little sketches of beggars, another of Rembrandt's artistic discoveries.
