Rembrandt

Grossly misunderstood and represented as a revolutionary, liberal, Romantic, and bohemian artist, Rembrandt has lived for over 400 years now through his art. During this time period, many views and opinions have oscillated from praise to scathing remarks and vice versa. The extent of Rembrandt’s fame can be understood by the following incident: in the year 1670, the Sicilian collector Antonio Ruffo received a letter from the artist Abraham Breughel with a request to get some original masterpieces from Italy. Ruffo had to apologize stating that no painter had been able to exhibit an ability to paint as extraordinary as Rembrandt, who had already died by then.

a) He tried to prove that Rembrandt has not been completely understood by the critics.b) The effect of unemployment on United States families.c) He tried to portray that even though Rembrandt was highly regarded in the art world, his prowess and mettle was understood by only a few.d) Rembrandt never believed in self-praise and publicizing, rather he was a silent artist.
