Explore Rembrandt Through Documentary At The Morris Museum

MORRIS COUNTY, NJ - This Wednesday at 7:30 p.m. the Morris Museum in Morristown will be showing Exhibition On Screen's "Rembrandt."

For many, Rembrandt is the greatest artist that ever lived and this film seeks to explore the truth about the man behind the legend. According to the description:

"Every Rembrandt exhibition is eagerly anticipated but this major show hosted by London’s National Gallery and Amsterdam’s Rijksmuseum was an event like no other. Given privileged access to both galleries the film documents this landmark exhibition, while interweaving Rembrandt’s life story, with behind-the-scenes preparations at these world famous institutions. It explores many of the exhibition’s key works, through contributions from specially invited guests including curators and leading art historians."

According to organizers, this fascinating documentary further explores the life of one of art's greatest painters. A recent article in the The New York Times relates the unusual circumstances under which a Dutch art dealer, Jan Six, uncovered two of Rembrandt's previously unseen works.
