Produktbeschreibung

Rembrandt's masterful "Bathsheba Reading King David's Letter" is unusual both as a history painting and as a portrayal of a nude. This collection of essays by six leading Rembrandt scholars examines the painting's qualities from perspectives ranging from changing perceptions of female beauty and the nude, to technical analysis and biographical and psychological analysis of artist, subject, and viewer. 36 photos.
