Shot on location in Amsterdam, the sampled Rembrandt, from a six-part artist series, introduces the life and works of the Dutch master (1606-69). Although little is known of Rembrandt's childhood, an early painting, created at age 19, shows evidence of his remarkable talent. ..Others in this insightful series introduce Brueghel, Vermeer, van Dyck, Reubens, and Bosch. Excellent choices for high-school and college art students and public library patrons.
