Description

The 33-page feature article of this special edition of the Rijksmuseum Bulletin, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man: Edgar Degas Inspired by Rembrandt by Jenny Reynaerts, coincides with the Museum's upcoming exhibition Rembrandt and Degas, Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man. Although it is well known that Edgar Degas was inspired by Rembrandt, whose etchings he saw when he was in Rome as a young artist, studying the Old Masters, the exhibition will be the first devoted to Rembrandt’s influence on Degas. On view will be a series of self-portraits of the two artists when they were both starting out on their illustrious careers.

The 59th Volume of the Rijksmuseum Bulletin also features the essays Willem Joseph Laquy Copies Gerrit Dou: '…of very great service in the further shaping of his knowledge and taste' by Gerbrand Korevaar, Masters of the Knife: Chinese Carving in Wood, Ivory and Soapstone by Jan van Campen, Boselli's Philosophers Identified as Socrates and Plato by Menno Jonker, Bald or Headband? by Frits Scholten, and Acquisitions by Huigen Leeflang.

106 pages, full-color illustrations throughout. 6 3/4'' x 9 1/2''. Paper.
