Rembrandt van Rijn Figurative Prints
Dutch, 1606-1669
Rembrandt was the most influential 17th Century Dutch painter. After years of early success as a portrait painter, his life was beset by financial hardship and personal tragedy. He continued to paint portraits and develop etchings. Rembrandt's portraits of his contemporaries, self-portraits and illustrations of scenes from the Bible are regarded as his greatest creative triumphs. His self-portraits form a unique and intimate autobiography, in which the artist surveyed himself without vanity and with the utmost sincerity. Like many artists of the Dutch Golden Age, such as Jan Vermeer of Delft, Rembrandt was also an avid art collector and dealer. Rembrandt never went abroad, but he was considerably influenced by the work of the Italian masters and Netherlandish artists who had studied in Italy, like Pieter Lastman, the Utrecht Caravaggists, Flemish Baroque, and Peter Paul Rubens. Rembrandt's foremost contribution in the history of printmaking was his transformation of the etching process from a relatively new reproductive technique into a true art form, along with Jacques Callot. His reputation as the greatest etcher in the history of the medium was established in his lifetime and never questioned since. Few of his paintings left the Dutch Republic while he lived, but his prints were circulated throughout Europe, and his wider reputation was initially based on them alone.to

Notes:
Provenance: private collection - Green Bay, WI; acquired from Sotheby's, New York, NY in c. 2015. The artist Lambrecht Hopfer's printed monogram signature "LH" lower right. The printer/publisher David Funck's (plate) number "182" lower right. This etching is after Albrecht Dürer’s 1511 engraving "The Crucifixion (Christ on the Cross)", ("Dürer-Katalog" - Meder No. 13, page 73). Printed in black from an iron plate. The image depicts Christ on the cross at center, the Virgin at left, two Maries behind her, St. John standing at right, a Roman solider behind him. It is after the eleventh plate of Dürer's sixteen plates from his 1507-1513 "The Engraved Passion" series, ("Dürer-Katalog" - Meder No. 3-18, page 70-74).
"The print was originally designed without the number engraved in the lower margin (First state: Lambrecht Hopfer, c. 1530). The Hopfers' descendant David Funck (Nuremberg, 1642–1705) acquired over two hundred of their original iron plates, engraved numbers into them, and re-printed them around 1686-1700. The "182" indicates that "The Crucifixion" was the 182nd print in Funck’s series (Second state: David Funck, c. 1686-1700). About a century later, 92 of these plates were acquired by Carl Wilhelm Silberberg in Frankfurt and printed for the third and final time in the book "Opera Hopferiana", of which "The Crucifixion" was the 90th print (Third state: Carl Wilhelm Silberberg for "Opera Hopferiana", 1802)". - Elizabeth Upper, Cambridge University Library, University of Cambridge, Cambridge, UK

The Ringball Player
Etching on paper
New Hollstein’s first state of two
Signed and dated lower left: Rembrandt F. 1654
Among the foremost figures of the Old Masters, the esteemed Dutch artist Rembrandt van Rijn is often regarded as the preeminent etcher in art history. As the most significant Dutch printmaker, his body of work includes nearly 300 authenticated prints, marked by pioneering techniques that set new standards in the medium. This exceptional etching, titled The Ringball Player, exemplifies the intricate artistry and meticulous detail that distinguish Rembrandt's prints.
This print is closely related to the ones of the early life of Christ, etched in the same year, and of a similar size, using long straight hatching lines to model the figures and the background. In Rembrandt’s oeuvre, this is also one of the very rare subject matters connected with sports and leisure time. The title refers to ringball, a reference to a form of indoor croquet...

Rembrandt, Christ and the Woman of Samaria, Among Ruins
By Rembrandt van Rijn
Located in New York, NY
This stunning etching was realized by the baroque master Rembrandt van Rijs in Holland, 1634. The composition pictures Jesus Christ with a hand outstretched, identified with his long flowing locks, donning a robe with a his hand outstretched as he addressed the female figure next to him. The lady holds the well chain with the bucket of freshly drawn water resting on the edge of the cobbled rock well. The lady looks on in rapt attention, one hand resting on the crumbling edge of a embankment. In the background there are a series of archways, and two men in the midst of gossiping (perhaps at the sight of Jesus). Rembrandt executed the etching in delicate chiaroscuro that masterfully illustrates the light, perspective and emotion of the scene as only he is able to. The work depicts Jesus Christ and the woman of Samaria recalling the passage from the biblical verse John 4:5-30 in which Jesus speaks to a peasant Samaritan woman fetching water from a well. "There came a woman of Samaria to draw water. Jesus said to her, 'Give me a drink.' For his disciples had gone away into the city to buy food. The Samaritan woman said to him, 'How is it that you, a Jew, ask a drink of me, a woman of Samaria?' For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans. The parable demonstrates Jesus' kind regard for all peoples regardless of social stature. With its elegant composition and incredible artistry (by one of the most influential and celebrated artists of all time), this work promises to delight discerning collectors of historically important works. It represents a winning acquisition for lovers of fine art (especially those with an interest in first rate Renaissance works), and also those with a penchant for religious and biblical art...
