The 'Anatomy Lesson of Dr Tulp didn't feature unfortunately, but with all the rest on show (late works) on this one occasion, it didn't leave too big a hole!!

Among many of his noted skills, I reckon he isn't recognised nearly enough for his treatment of and rendering of light source. Among the very best!!

I'm a Rembrandt fan, inasmuch as I couldn't name any of his paintings, but I do think he's great, especially his self-portraits.


Cornwall's Red River
John Wedgwood Clarke, a poet, traces the story of a famously polluted river, which in some places is still polluted even though the tin mines were closed years ago.

You have to make yourself familiar with the two masterpieces (understatement) I mentioned Doddle. To say that they are outstanding works does not come close to doing them justice! I agree with you about his self portraits too! I don't know what it said about him, but he is known to have created more self portrait paintings than anyone else. Then, of course there are a number of his other works in which he placed himself as one of the characters!!

In my top 5 of all time Masters!!
