Art History Lecture | Rembrandt Golden Age of Dutch Art | Presented by Linda Blair (Week 4) | Athenaeum Music & Arts Library

About the Event

When the young Rembrandt arrives in Amsterdam in 1631, he is not only ambitious, but, judging from his self-portraits of that period, brash, cocky, and confident of his artistic power. Determined to prove that he is the equal of the great Flemish artist Peter Paul Rubens, Rembrandt paints in Rubens’s Baroque style. A decade later, Rembrandt realizes that—despite the drama and theatrical lighting effects of Baroque art (characteristics he will retain)—he needs to capture deeper truths, greater profundity. In short, his unrelenting need for drama deepens, but now, buffeted by tragedy, he moves toward the drama of the soul.
