Rembrandt: A Novel by Gladys Schmitt is a fictionalized account of the life of the famous Dutch painter, Rembrandt van Rijn. The novel follows Rembrandt's life from his early years in Leiden to his rise as a successful artist in Amsterdam. The story is told from the perspective of several characters, including Rembrandt himself, his wife Saskia, and his friend and rival, Jan Lievens. Throughout the novel, Schmitt explores the themes of love, loss, and artistic inspiration. Rembrandt's relationship with Saskia is a central focus of the story, and Schmitt portrays their love as both passionate and tumultuous. The novel also delves into Rembrandt's creative process and the challenges he faced as an artist, including financial struggles and the pressure to conform to the expectations of his patrons. Schmitt's writing is rich and descriptive, and she brings the world of 17th century Amsterdam to life with vivid detail. The novel is a captivating exploration of one of history's greatest artists, and a must-read for anyone interested in the life and work of Rembrandt van Rijn.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
