66.00 Rembrandt Harmensz. van Rijn -
Prints (1606-1669)
Dutch painter and etcher, Rembrandt, was born in Leyden, July 15, 1606.
The art of etching is one element of his remarkable career that is not
as well known as his famous paintings. The skill of etching an image
into metal is one of exact dimensions and one that Rembrandt mastered
with great success. There were many etchings by him that have been
reworked or altered in some way to improve the image. They have excited
both collectors and students of the arts for many decades. The prices
which they fetch at auction or at private sales are enormous. The number
of impressions taken from each etching plate is limited due to the
nature of the soft metal to ware on the incised lines of each.
Cartographic Associates has been able to obtain a very small number of
copperplate re-strikes taken from plates made by the Rembrandt House in
Amsterdam. This process known as “photogravure” transfers images
directly from the original engraving plates onto new engraved
copperplates. While not taken directly from the original plates, the
re-strikes from these plates duplicate in every manner the original
etchings, both in design [print-plate marks] and in the texture and
raised engraved lines.
White and Boon, also known as Hollstein is perhaps the best
classification system of the Rembrandt etchings. The numbers that appear
with each etching we offer are from the Bartsch cataloging inventory
utilizing the Hollstein numbering system. Listed below are ones
available, each offered in a beautifully styled European heavy ornate
frame with linen and ceramic matte complimenting the heavy wood
ornamentation. Magnificent to view each print comes with a Certificate
of Authenticity inscribed with the owners name and country indicating
the original origin and reproduction method.

66.11 Self
Portrait Leaning on a Stone Wall, c1639 [re-strike] by Rembrandt van Rijn,
Amsterdam
 |
The pose
and composition of this etching is derived from a portrait
painted by Titian. Rembrandt posed himself at an oblique
angle, behind a stone wall with his head turned toward the
artist. One year later Rembrandt adopted the same pose for a
painted self portrait. Signed in the etching, this work was
seen as the finest of all his etched self portraits.
