Abstract

As expounded in Chapter III, p. 127 ff, this painting shows such material, technical and stylistic affinities with the ‘Self-portrait’ in Melbourne (IV 21), that there can be no reasonable doubt that both works are from the same hand, and must have originated in Rembrandt’s workshop. In this entry, it will suffice to furnish technical details and information concerning its provenance.
