By Fine Art Today - September 10, 2018

The Denver Art Museum (DAM) will be the sole venue for “Rembrandt: Painter as Printmaker,” presenting new scholarship on rarely seen prints by Rembrandt van Rijn.

Unforgettable images of biblical, portrait, allegory, still life, landscape, and genre artworks of the time will be featured throughout “Rembrandt: Painter as Printmaker” to showcase the mastery that cemented Rembrandt as one of the greatest artists in history. The exhibition will demonstrate how Rembrandt used his view of the world around him to fuel his artistic journey, often using himself, family members, and neighbors as models. It also will expose the various types of paper he used throughout his artistic journey for printmaking, such as oriental paper, wrapping paper, and parchment, as well as European papers.  READ MORE . . .
