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 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.
The article and thelecture are both about Rembrandt painting. The writer of the article is feels that this painting is could be a some others work not a Rembrandt painting. The lecturer challengers the claims made by the author. He thinks that this painting is belongs to Rembrandt.
First of all, the author argue that the lady who is in the painting is waring a luxurious fur collar coat which is not suitable for that picture since that lady is wearing a cheep white linen cap. This point is challenge by the lecturer. He claims that the X-ray analizis of that picture says that that coat is drown 100 years after the original painting is done.
Secondly, the author suggest that Rembrandt is a master of paintig ligtht and shadow. The article notes that the face should be light in color insted of dark since the face is illuminated by a the light reflected onto it from bellow. The lecture rebuts this argument. He suggest that there was a light color cloth in original picture and some one has change it.
Finally, the author state that Rembrandt is a painter who use single panel of wood to drow his painting. Moreover the article says that Rembrandt have use sevaral pices of wood panels glued to gether in theis picture. In contrast the lecturers position is that recently by some one added this wood panels and glued to gether. He notes that some one has done this to this picture to get a better appearance.
