'''Rembrandt''' (full name ''Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn'') (Leiden 1606 - Amsterdam 1669), was the most acclaimed painter in the [[Netherlands]]—the greatest of the "Dutch Masters." He considered himself a religious painter, but he is most famous for his portraits. Rembrandt produced about 600 paintings including his 50-60 self portraits, he made 300 etchings, and an estimated number of about 1,400 drawings. Most of his drawings look unfinished, but he stated a drawing is finished when the artist has fulfilled his intentions.
