The new art exhibit, <\/span>Rembrandt in Amsterdam: Creativity and Competition<\/span><\/a>, brings many of the master’s art pieces to Canada for the first time. Running from July until September, it is no wonder that the show completely sold out. According to the curator, this exhibit focuses on the “central decades of the artist’s career within the context of the Amsterdam art market.”<\/span><\/p>\n

The Man of Amsterdam<\/h2>\n

Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn was an artist during the Dutch Golden Age and is <\/span>best known for his complex historical and religious subjects and his highly unique portraits. He never left Amsterdam once he arrived. As such, his location heavily influenced his artistic style. Rembrandt also found inspiration from the Italian art that was popular in Holland during his career. Like many artists, he didn’t find financial success during his lifetime.<\/p>\n

This exhibit is featuring the artist’s work from when he arrived in Amsterdam until the middle of the 17th century. It will feature many of his paintings and drawings, as well as pieces from his contemporaries. This helps provide more context for viewers. The show depicts the art scene in Amsterdam as a whole helped to form his body of work.<\/p>\n
