Description
Rembrandt's Naked Truth: Drawing nude models in the Golden Age offers a clear picture of the drawing practice during the Golden Age, specifically concerning nude models. At the centre of this subject is Rembrandt himself, whose lifelike representation of the naked body was not only novel and unique, but also controversial. By placing his work in historical context - and comparing his nudes to those of his contemporaries - this publication provides new insights into Rembrandt's process.
In four comprehensive essays new scientific studies are presented by international experts: guest curator Judith Noorman, David the Witt, chief curator of Museum 'Het Rembrandthuis', Victoria Sancho Lobis and Michael Zell. In addition, Rembrandt's Naked Truth contains concise chapters on broader themes, such as the changing ideals of beauty and the identity of the nude models themselves.
