Rembrandt: Painter as Printmaker
October 30, 2018 @ 1:00 pm - 5:00 pm
$18
Docent led tour at the Denver Art Museum
Arranged by Kavod on the Road
The Denver Art Museum is the sole venue for Rembrandt: Painter as Printmaker, which showcases about 100 prints from Rembrandt van Rijn’s career spanning from 1625 to 1665.
Images of biblical, portrait, allegory, still life, landscape, and genre artworks of the time demonstrate the mastery that cemented Rembrandt as one of the greatest artists in history.
Rembrandt: Painter as Printmaker takes a close look at Rembrandt’s innovative approach to printmaking that combined the three principle methods of intaglio, including etching, drypoint and engraving. New scholarship about the artist is presented, revealing how Rembrandt intentionally varied the states of his prints, ink and exotic papers to create rarities that he knew his clients desired, demonstrating how he deliberately manipulated his prints for marketing and storytelling purposes.
Cost: $18, includes admission & transportation
