The Holy Family at Night

[edit]

I do not see the painting 'The Holy Family at Night' on this Article. Am I just not seeing it? (I searched a quick find too!) Here it is if anyone's wondering: http://www.wikipaintings.org/en/rembrandt/the-holy-family-night Newyorkadam (talk) 23:53, 17 October 2013 (UTC)Newyorkadam[reply]

Portrait of an Old Man in an Armchair

[edit]

The painting you call "Portrait of an Old Man in an Armchair" is called "Portrait of a Jew" by the Hermitage, who own it. Why is another title being used here? Intelligent Mr Toad (talk) 15:07, 2 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Omitted work

[edit]
Scholar at his Study

I've run across some works attributed to Rembrandt that aren't listed here, such as File:Rembrandt Harmensz van Rijn - Scholar at his Study - Google Art Project.jpg (right) from The National Gallery in Prague. Is this not widely accepted as a Rembrandt, or is something else going on? Thanks! Dcoetzee 15:38, 15 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

A Lady and Gentleman in Black

[edit]

Does anyone have access to the most recent catalog of works from the Rembrandt Research Project? Supposedly they pulled A Lady and Gentleman in Black in 1987 per some news reports, but I'm seeing it listed here. Was it re-added to their catalog? Thank you TarkusABtalk/contrib 15:36, 26 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@TarkusAB:, it turns out the painting was dis-attributed at one point, but the RRP attributed it to Rembrandt again, as #61, in the most recent catalog. The painting's article, linked from this list, is half-right, as it doesn't explain the most recent RRP finding. Outriggr (talk) 02:53, 27 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Outriggr: OK thanks. The painting article was correct until I modified it today. I will fix. TarkusABtalk/contrib 03:37, 27 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Catalogue numbers: why these?

[edit]

Apparently the author(s) of this page have decided to follow the numbering system of the Rembrandt Research Project's "Corpus of Rembrandt Paintings". This leads to bizarre effects in the chronology, like a painting signed and dated 1631 coming at the end of 1632, then being followed by paintings from 1638, then back again. When I consult this list, I am interested in the chronology, not in the erratic numbering system of the RRP. The inclusion or omission of certain works is a matter of debate, but sticking to chronology, even if approximate ("c. 1631") should be rule number one. To mention two works I know very well, A85 and A86 definitely belong at the end of the year 1631 rather than at the end of 1632, which is misleading.

Is Rembrandt just a christian painter?

[edit]

It's written Rembrandt's paintings is about a variety of subjects. But i think alot of his paintings is religious. Portraits aren't applied to this. Portraits are basically photos. Most Rembrandt's paintings of creative thinking appear religious. Rembrandt didn't go to church frequently but maybe did other christian practices. How much of Rembrandt's genre paintings is religious? Is a signifiant amount about other subjects? Rebourne Ohcs (talk) 21:54, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
