CHAPTER 1

REMBRANDT HARMENSZOON VAN RIJN

1606–1669

The Oude Rijn was a river on which a miller ground malt for beer and he took the name of the river as his own. Of his six sons only one is known to us, the artist we call Rembrandt. One of the world's most profound artists he was a draftsman whose sketches have created a dozen styles in the art of drawing.

The boy was always sketching, and at fourteen he was at the University of Leyden where his drawing interested him more than textbooks. Apprenticed to a bad painter, his genius outgrew that handicap so that by 1625 he was an independent master in Leyden and soon a popular portrait painter in Amsterdam. He never stopped drawing no matter how successful he was with paintings in heavy gold frames. His early drawings in black and red chalk have the crude power of the soil and the mill; heads and figures of his parents, his brothers, the solid Dutch countryside. From the sources of his mother's Bible he took to drawing scenes from the Old and New Testament. In chalk, in ink, with remarkable skill, and a kind of shorthand notation of faces and bodies in his later styles, he created a personal world peopled by his imagination. His skill was his ability to project the drama of faith and legend onto paper, yet basing it on the peasants, the rich life of the Amsterdam mijnheer and his fat wife and children the artist had observed. Somehow with a scratchy reed pen, a tone or two of brown wash, he could build up Jerusalem, the Passion of Christ, the Prodigal Son, Lazarus rising from his grave. Rembrandt's drawing is as remarkable as his painting and his etchings.

For each of his etchings there are often many drawings, for every painting usually a searching series of drawings that seek out costumes, gestures, settings, furnishings, often enveloped in that personal chiaroscuro of the artist's inner world. He rises above the other great draftsmen of his time, Rubens and Callot, by what he tried to get into a drawing. An instantaneous emotion to the visual world, a reaction of inner expression that was beyond the marvelous sensual reality of Rubens or the dancing ballet of horror that was Callot's image of the history of their world.

Rembrandt not only drew himself but was one of the great collectors of the drawings of other artists. In 1665, when his collection of drawings and prints (Papier Kunst—paper art) was sold at a special sale, it listed "works of art of various outstanding Italian, French, German and Netherlandish masters gathered by the just-listed Rembrandt van Rijn with great collector's skill."

The drawings themselves, already in his lifetime being collected, were at first done in black and red chalk, in bistre and gallnut ink. He combined chalk later with pen and brush work, using a bistre and Indian ink and often a white body color. With a feather quill, a reed pen or a brush, he directed a flexibility of rapid loops and curves into his work. The reed pen was his favorite, used often half dry, it gave his line a vibrant transparency, and when he diluted his inks to wash them over the lines, there resulted a velvet quality of atmosphere, which, combined with sections of the paper left white added to the drama of the drawing a mystery of artistic purpose. He rarely in his colored drawings went beyond a solemn brown and a saffron yellow.

His drawings are of two types. Those he did directly from nature and those he created out of his imagination and emotions. No matter how he treated myths or holy subjects, they picture human beings. And they live for him and for us in that atmosphere of indoor air and outdoor landscape in which his figures move, his dramas come to their climaxes.

His drawings are not large. He drew them for his own knowledge and for his students. Hundreds of them have survived and they speak to us more directly than Rembrandt's etchings and paintings. Time, contemplation, and genius meet in his pen lines, the viewer participates in the artist's world on paper. His sketches have a new kind of realism, not posed, but fully active, going about their life as if in a scene witnessed by accident through a suddenly opened door.

Rembrandt's success as a society artist did not last. His wife died, his new style of painting did not please the burghers who parade in The Night Watch. In 1657 he was declared a bankrupt, his debtors hounded him. His last self-portraits show an aging face colored with drink and neglect. Only the eyes seem alive, alert to a chaos of emotions that his drawings still captured. Living among the Jewish patriarchs on the fringe of the ghetto, the old artist continued to draw. His style, his last manner is that of a man who has seen everything, experienced much, and only the vital core of a drawing is preserved on paper.

Gone from his last drawings are the stylish costumes, the rich backgrounds, the plump faces of worldly success. Forgotten by his former patrons, the staaltmesters, he said: "What I want is not honor but freedom."

Alone, often cold and hungry, Rembrandt drew the sacred texts of the Bible. His angels spin in space, the Christ child is born, holy men kneel, the dreadful journey to the Cross is recorded by a great draftsman. It is hard to believe that the torn ink line, the slashed stroke of a loaded pen or brush in a shaking hand can, with such economy of means, tell us so much. With a thin wash or a blot of diluted ink Rembrandt places his world firmly before us.

He said: "A picture is finished when the artist has fulfilled his purpose in undertaking it." In 1669 he, too, was done, but his death only began his fame.

CHAPTER 2

Notes on Rembrandt's Family and Friends Pictured in the Drawings

Saskia van Uylenburch (Nos. 63–66; 82 and 84), a beautiful and wealthy woman, married Rembrandt in 1634. The couple's first three children all died within a few months of birth. Saskia and her firstborn, Rombartus, are thought to be the subjects of Woman Carrying a Child Downstairs (No. 82). The couple's fourth child, Titus (see Nos. 70 and 76), born in 1641, survived infancy. He had a close and loving relationship with his father, but died from the plague in 1668, a year before Rembrandt's death. Saskia died in 1642, a year after Titus was born, at the age of thirty. Titia van Uylenburch (No. 78) was Saskia's sister.

A number of years after Saskia's death his housemaid Hendrickje Stoffels (see Nos. 43 and 79) became his mistress. In 1654 she gave birth to a healthy daughter, Cornelia (not shown in these drawings).

Rembrandt's close friend Jan Six (1618–1700; see Nos. 71 and 72), an important cultural figure in the golden age of the Netherlands, became mayor of Amsterdam in 1691. His large art collection, including numerous works by Rembrandt, is still a major art venue in Amsterdam.

Cornelis Claesz Anslo (1592–1646; see No. 67) was a famous preacher of the Mennonite community in Amsterdam.

Jan Cornelis Sylvius (No. 68) was a preacher of the Dutch Reformed Church and the legal guardian of Saskia van Uylenburch at the time of her marriage to Rembrandt.
