Rembrandt was born #onthisday in 1606. Here’s a self-portrait by the Old Master from 1639.
In this self-portrait Rembrandt portrays himself in Renaissance attire, taking inspiration from two sixteenth-century works, Raphael's Portrait of Baldassare Castiglione, now in the @ルーブル美術館, Paris, and Titian's so-called Portrait of Ariosto, now in the @national_gallery, London. By following the example of these earlier artists, Rembrandt probably wanted to be seen in the same context. Rembrandt depicts himself fictionally, in the nostalgic garb of his Renaissance heroes - not just those from Italy, but with echoes of northern European self-portraits by artists such as Albrecht Dürer and Lucas van Leyden.
Rembrandt's style is here rather detailed, and he brilliantly evokes the textures of his velvet cap and his hair, which to judge from other self-portraits of the period he has here lengthened - it was normally trimmed at the level of his ear.
