Painting Description
"Self Portrait (?) With Plumed Cap And Lowered Sabre" (b., Holl. 23; H. 110; Bb.34-b) is an etching by the renowned Dutch artist Rembrandt van Rijn, created in 1634. This artwork is part of Rembrandt's extensive series of self-portraits, which he produced throughout his career, offering a profound insight into his evolving self-perception and artistic style. The etching depicts a half-length figure, traditionally identified as a self-portrait of Rembrandt, adorned with a plumed cap and holding a lowered sabre. The question mark in the title suggests some ambiguity regarding the identification of the figure as Rembrandt himself.
The etching is notable for its intricate detailing and the dramatic use of light and shadow, characteristic of Rembrandt's work. The plumed cap and the sabre are elements that add a sense of theatricality and grandeur to the portrait, possibly reflecting the artist's interest in historical and exotic costumes. This interest is evident in several of his other works from the same period, where he often depicted himself in various guises and elaborate attire.
Rembrandt's technique in this etching demonstrates his mastery of the medium. The fine lines and cross-hatching create a rich texture and depth, bringing the figure to life with a sense of immediacy and presence. The expression on the figure's face is contemplative, adding a layer of psychological complexity that invites viewers to ponder the identity and thoughts of the subject.
The etching is catalogued under several references: b., Holl. 23; H. 110; Bb.34-b, which are part of the comprehensive cataloging systems used to classify Rembrandt's prints. These references are crucial for art historians and collectors in identifying and authenticating Rembrandt's works.
"Self Portrait (?) With Plumed Cap And Lowered Sabre" is a testament to Rembrandt's skill as an etcher and his enduring fascination with self-representation. It remains a significant piece within his oeuvre, reflecting both his technical prowess and his introspective nature.
