The Artist in his Studio (c.1626-1628). Rembrandt van Rijn (Dutch, 1606-1669). Oil on panel. MFA, Boston.The young Rembrandt seems to represent the daunting moments of conception and decision necessary to the creation of a work of art. An artist confronts his easel in a studio bare of everything except his essential tools. This drama, with its emphasis on thought rather than action, is intensified by the expressive use of light and shadow. -- source link
