Rembrandt Millennium Edition

Art Brokerage: Park West Artist: Rembrandt Millennium Edition: Eight original etchings by Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn (1606 - 1669) are now available for the first time in nearly one hundred years - - the Millennium Impressions. Rembrandt, deemed "The Master Etcher" by art historians, needs no introduction. Rembrandt's etched works of art are recognized as the most distinguished body of work ever created by any artist in this medium. Despite the passage of three hundred years since his death, the genius of Rembrandt's etchings continues to capture and hold our feelings and imagination. Rembrandt's art captivates us because both the joy and despair Rembrandt experienced in his life are reflected in his etchings - - the medium of art Rembrandt loved and used to communicate his art to the people. Rembrandt's rich masterpieces still confront and communicate to us today, and remind us that no artist in history has approached Rembrandt's mastery of etching. While the new millennium is cause to celebrate the future and the dawn of a new century, it also offers us an opportunity to honor those artists that profoundly influenced art history. Rembrandt reigns as one of these few artists. Listings wanted.
