Description
REMBRANDT VAN RIJN
Self Portrait Frowning: Bust.
Etching, 1630. 72x60 mm; 2⅞x2⅜ inches, narrow margins.

A very good, dark, evenly-printed and well-inked impression of this extremely scarce etching, with strong contrasts and all the fine, delicate lines distinct.
According to Usticke, "A very scarce portrait, rarely fine (RR-)."
We have found only 15 other impressions at auction in the past 30 years. Bartsch 10; Biörklund 30-M; Hollstein (White and Boon) 10.
