TPO-3: Summarize the points made in the lecture, being sure to explain how they cast doubt on specific points made reading passage.
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 reading passage and lecture have conflicting opinions about whether or not the " portrait of an Elderly woman in a White Bonnet" painting was portrayed by Rembrandt. The article strongly postulates that there are issues which can't match with Rembrandt's styles. On the other hand, the listening adamantly delineates that thanks to the precise examination, it is proved this painting is one his fine arts.
First and foremost, according to the author of the excerpt, the first problem is with the woman's attire which represents classic fur collar and can't be obtained by the usual servants. Nonetheless, the lecture offsets these points by declaring that the dyes acquired from this landscape indicated that it was added after one hundred years Rembrandt depicted the original painting. Since these additional pigments intended to expand its value and appear more elegant than the previous one.
The professor in the lecture further asserts that if it is removed from those extra colours, the fur collar will easily illuminate that the woman face absorbs the shadow. As a result, it becomes very alike to Rembrandt's manoeuvres which have used in his other compositions. These claims refute the writer's implications that the portrait's key elements do not consistent with Rembrandt's great ability to portray light and shadow. Furthermore, he asserts that the woman's face doesn't appear in the right shadow because it mostly receives light than darkness.
The article lastly points out that this picture was painted on glued several pieces of wood, however, it doesn't meet with the painter's style because he always used wood panels. In fact, there are no bits of evidence of his painting has ever depicted on several glued piece of woods. The speaker in the listening counters these indications by insisting that regarding as the reasons above mentioned, it was appended by someone who wanted to increase its significance and appearance in a more fancy way. As a matter of fact, it is reported that a piece of wood of original painting is the same as the trees used by Rembrandt's other arts.
