REMBRANDT VAN RIJN
The Triumph of Mordecai.
Etching, drypoint and aquatint, circa 1641. 163x213 mm; 5½x8½ inches, narrow margins. Usticke's second state (of 2), with the posthumous addition of aquatint; New Hollstein's fourth state (of 4). A very good, well-inked impression.
According to Schapelhouman, "In spite of its modest dimensions, the Triumph of Mordecai exploits the scope of printmaking to an astonishing degree. It is as if Rembrandt [1606-1669] wanted to exhibit the entire spectrum of his technique, from the airiest etched lines in the crowd on the right to the inkiest blacks in the drypoint areas around the superb figure kneeling in the left foreground," (see Rembrandt the Printmaker, London, 2000, page 196). Bartsch 40; Biörklund 41-1; Hollstein (White and Boon) 40; New Hollstein 185.
