Rare, large and stunning bronze bust of Holland's most famous painter. When we first saw this truly large, great looking and very well made bronze sculpture of Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn (1606-1669) we immediately knew we had to have it. Also, because bronze sculptures of Rembrandt really are a rare find. We have searched the worldwide web and we learned that there is not another one of this large bronze busts to be found anywhere in the world.

Anyone who understands what it takes to create a bronze sculpture of this size and quality knows that this Rembrandt bust...
