A Woman Bathing
Dutch / Paintings (Reproductions) / Rembrandt - 11 months ago - troycapc
This is a reproduction of “A Woman Bathing” of 1654 by Rembrandt van Rijn. This is probably a portrait of Hendrickje Stoffens who was the artist’s common-law wife. She bore him a daughter in the year of this painting. The red robe in the painting may indicate that the subject matter was originally Bathsheba or Diana. The brushwork appears to be unusually spontaneous for Rembrandt and several sections appear to be unfinished. Yet the artist signed the work which indicates that he considered it completed. The masterpiece is 47 cm wide and 61.8 cm high and is in the National Gallery, London.
