Description

Michael Kitson’s 1971 study, featured in the third volume of the Encyclopaedia Britannica series, examines the technical mastery and prolific output of the Dutch master Rembrandt van Rijn. The text explores his use of chiaroscuro to create dramatic depth and focuses on his evolution from early portraits to profound, later historical works. A dedicated page provides a complete list of the plates included in the volume, acting as a guide to the tipped-in illustrations. Kitson provides a detailed analysis of Rembrandt’s etchings and paintings, chronicling his professional successes and personal struggles within the seventeenth-century Dutch Golden Age.
