Welcome to the preview of our upcoming Rembrandt exhibition, currently scheduled to open on 29 October 2020. The exhibition will show 34 prints from the Kunstsammlung of the University of Göttingen. They were selected by permanent fellow Ivan Gaskell, professor of cultural history at Bard Graduate Center and intellectual historian Martin van Gelderen, director of the Kolleg.

In 1633 Rembrandt etched this dashing self-portrait with a fancy cap and a scarf. As he moved from his home town Leiden to Amsterdam, Rembrandt fell in love with Saskia. The etching on the left features one of the many portraits he made of his young wife. On this occasion her image is part of a series of studies of women, young and old.
