REMBRANDT VAN RIJN
Self Portrait with Saskia.

Etching, 1636. 105x94 mm; 4 1/8x3 3/4 inches, wide margins. Biörklund's third state (of 3); Usticke's fourth state (of 6), though with the vertical scratch through Rembrandt's left hand still distinct; White and Boon's third state (of 3); New Hollstein's third state (of 4). A very good, dark and evenly-printed impression with strong contrasts and with no sign of wear in the most densely cross-hatched areas.

Provenance: Robert McDonald, New York, with the original label on the frame back. Bartsch 19; Biörklund 36-B; Hollstein (White and Boon) 19; New Hollstein 158.
