Rembrandt is the most famous of the seventeenth-century Dutch painters. However, there are doubts whether some paintings attributed to Rembrandt were actually painted by him. One such painting is known as Portrait of an Elderly Woman in a White Bonnet. The painting was attributed to Rembrandt because of its style, and indeed the representation of the woman’s face is very much like that of portraits known to be by Rembrandt. But there are problems with the painting that suggest it could not be a work by Rembrandt.
First, there is something inconsistent about the way the woman in the portrait is dressed. She is wearing a white linen cap of a kind that only servants would wear – yet the coat she is wearing has a luxurious fur collar that no servant could afford. Rembrandt, who was known for his attention to the details of his subjects’ clothing, would not have been guilty of such an inconsistency.
Second, Rembrandt was a master of painting light and shadow, but in this painting these elements do not fit together. The face appears to be illuminated by light reflected onto it from below. But below the face is the dark fur collar, which would absorb light rather than reflect it. So the face should appear partially in shadow – which is not how it appears. Rembrandt would never have made such an error.
Finally, examination of the back of the painting reveals that it was painted on a panel made of several pieces of wood glued together. Although Rembrandt often painted on wood panels, no painting known to be by Rembrandt uses a panel glued together in this way from several pieces of wood.
For these reasons the painting was removed from the official catalog of Rembradnt’s paintings in the 1930
Rambrandt's doubted painting
The lecture is about the 3 facts that earlier, casused one of rambrandt paitings to be listed a feign one. but the professer make it clear that the 3 ressons that mentioned in the text are not totally true. And the mentioned painting is one of the Rambrandt's works.
first of all, the text indicates that some details about the portrait of the woman in the painting are contradicting. The woman in the painting dressed a white linen cap that only the servants wore them and also she just put on a luxurois fur which is not affordable by a normal servant. the proffesor just decline this reason by saying that through using x-ray tools and new technologies, reseachers found that real painting is hust hided through another details that added abouut 100 year after the real one had beem painted.
Also this reserches showed that the second reason- that lead us to think the painting is not original because of the light and shadow of the face in the painting-also was not true; becasue by remving the the collar fur that had been added to the painting, we can see the servant's white dress can reflect some light and shadow and lights on the painting are just accurate.
And last the wooden panel's of Rambrandt's painting are often an one single wooden panel, but the several panels used in the back of this painting convinced reseachers that it is another reason that this painting is not original. but as the professor indicates the new research is showing that the orignal paiting is just made by a singular wooden panel that is just from the tree that had been used in another famous Rambrandt painting's panel.
