OTTAWA
.- One of the most celebrated artists of the European tradition, Rembrandt van Rijn (16061669) was multi-talented: a painter, draughtsman, and printmaker. Known for emotional authenticity and lifelike character expressed in all his work, Rembrandt created art that is broadly relatable and engaging. The National Gallery of Canada presents, from July 16 to September 6, 2021, the exhibition Rembrandt in Amsterdam: Creativity and Competition, which traces Rembrandts development during the transformative central decades of his career, beginning with his move in 1632 from Leiden to Amsterdam.
