Summary note
This volume is a rare chance to see his exquisite painting by Rembrandt van Rijn alongside a selection of the artist's treatments of other biblical episodes, and works by his contemporaries. Rembrandt took an unusual and personal approach to biblical subjects, exploring the nature of divine encounter and the complexities of its representation, making use of the viewer's knowledge of the subject whilst finding ways to bring the familiar to life.
Notes
Published in conjunction with the exhibition "Divine Encounter: Rembrandt's Abraham and the Angels," organized by The Frick Collection and on view from May 30, 2017 to August 20, 2017.
