Reframing Rembrandt
Author: Michael ZellPublisher: Univ of California Press
ISBN: 0520227417
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 287
Book Description
"This book embeds Rembrandt's art in the pluralistic religious context of seventeenth-century Amsterdam, arguing for the restoration of this historical dimension to contemporary discussions of the artists. By incorporating this perspective, Zell confirms and revises one of the most forceful myths attached to Rembrandt's art and life: his presumed attraction and sensitivity to the Jews of early modern Amsterdam."--BOOK JACKET.
