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 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 inthe 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 Rembrandt’s paintings in the 1930s.

The main idea of the both the passage and the lecture is about a portrait Which was attributes to Rembrandt, a famuse painter, in the seventeenth century. With this in mind, the passage states that the woman face portrait can't attributed to Rembrandt. The lecturer, on the other hand, categorically denies all three reasons mentioned in the passage, believing that based on the new experiments the woman face portrait can attribute to Rembrandt.

First, both the text and talk discuss the idea of the woman dress. In this line of thought, the author says that the way that the woman dress is inconsistent. Conversely, the lecture mentions that in that the fur was added to the portrait 100 years later, because some one wants to increase the value of the portrait.If the fur removed from the original painting the woman dress was suitable to each other.
Second, both of the reading and the listening materials puts forth that the idea of the light and the shadow in the portrait. In this vein, the passage states that Rembrandt shadowing was wonderful because he was master in. However, we saw some problems in the woman face shadowing. On the other hand, the lecturer opposes this notion, citing that after removing fur from original portrait. The woman light clothe was revealed. As the professor mentioned we all know that the lighter color reflects the light to woman face. Therefore, the problem in the woman face shadowing was solved.

Finally, both of the passage and lecture discuss the idea of the several piece of the panel which used for the painting. In this regard, the author posits that Rembrandt was using one piece of the wood to his painting. However, the lecturer says that even though several pieces of wood used for the portrait, they were from the same tree which glued to each other.
