His work in etching spanned most of his career and embraced the wide range of subjects he pursued in his painting: portraits, landscapes, biblical scenes, pictures with allegorical and mythological themes, and more. This comprehensive collection contains Rembrandt's complete etchings -- over 300 works -- most of them shown in their original size. They have been reproduced directly from a rare collection famed for its pristine condition, fresh, clean impressions, rich contrasts, and brilliant printing.\u003cbr\u003eAmong the etchings included are: \u003ci\u003eSelf portrait drawing at a window\u003c\/i\u003e (1648); \u003ci\u003eAbraham's sacrifice\u003c\/i\u003e (1655); \u003ci\u003eChrist preaching\u003c\/i\u003e [The hundred-guilder print] (ca. 1643-49); \u003ci\u003eChrist crucified between the two thieves\u003c\/i\u003e [The three crosses] (1653); \u003ci\u003eThe return of the prodigal son\u003c\/i\u003e (1636); \u003ci\u003eThe three trees \u003c\/i\u003e(1643); \u003ci\u003eFaust\u003c\/i\u003e (ca. 1652); \u003ci\u003eJan Six\u003c\/i\u003e (1647); \u003ci\u003eThe great Jewish bride\u003c\/i\u003e (1635); \u003ci\u003eThe strolling musicians\u003c\/i\u003e (ca. 1635). The etchings are reproduced from the originals themselves rather than from reduced photographs, which can depart significantly in quality from the originals.\u003cbr\u003eThis handsome volume is filled with information critical to fully appreciating the extraordinary images it contains.
