Légende

'A Married Couple with Three Children', c1668-1669, (1967). Alternative titles: Portrait of a Family or the Brunswick Family Portrait. Here, more powerfully perhaps than in any other work of Rembrandt's, the element of portraiture is raised to the level of symbolism. This mother with her child is like the Madonna with the infant Jesus in certain Renaissance paintings where she is shown receiving the tribute of saints or donors. On the left, the husband and father presides over the older children who bring a basket of flowers to the wife and youngest child. Painting in the Herzog Anton Ulrich-Museum in Braunschweig. From "Rembrandt" by Ludwig Münz and Bob Haak, [Harry N. Abrams, Inc., New York, 1967]
