Rembrant

---

Rembrandt's Priceless Pictures are Unequalled for their eloquance and human compassion, their deep understanding of mandkind, and the dramatic beauty of their expression. The fluctuations of color and light reflect his sense of the innermost realities of life. Forty of his greatest paintings are reproduced here, in addition to many black-and-white illustrations in the text, and special gravure sections devoted to Rembrandt's drawing and graphic work. rnThe meteoric career of Rembrandt is like that of few of painters: early recognition and fame; unjust criticism and dishonor; an old age of great works, bankruptcy, and relative obscurity. In his art the interplay of drama and pathos is unforgettable. rnDr. Ludwig Manz, late Director of the Academy Picture Gallery in Vienna and a foremost authority on Rembrandt, supplied the text and many of the commentaries on the color plates. He summarized a lifetime of devoted and distinguished Rembrandt scholarship in this book, and has provided us with a lucid, fascinating introduction to Rembrandt and his art. The commentaries for the other color plates in this volume have been written by Bob Haak, Director of the Historical Museum, Amsterdam. Dr. Haak is on of today's leading Rembrandt specialists. rnrn87 illustrations, including 40 plates in full color
