In this episode I will discuss these self-portraits and more specifically Rembrandt’s impressive self-portrait of 1658. Rembrandt was 52 years old when he painted it. For over 100 years, it has hung in New York’s Frick Collection. Why did Henry Clay Frick buy it and what did he think of this portrait? What are the features of self-portraits and where do ‘tronies’ fit in? How is this type of portrait interpreted today? What do you notice just by taking a closer look at the self-portrait of 1658? And, what triggered me to use this self-portrait for the cover of the study which led to my book ‘Rembrandt’s Money’? Before we answer these questions, let’s go back more than 30 years.

For a few years I did extensive research, leading to my book of Rembrandt’s Money. The legal and financial life of an artist-entrepreneur in 17th century Holland. The first edition of the book Rembrandt’s Money, published in autumn 2021. It is nearly sold out.
