4 Star Rating  "Wonderful book"2008-03-26
- Reviewed By jodi-hummingbird
Excellent! Great images.

(Although much of the text is very technical and concerned with small and trivial details.)
 
5 Star Rating  "Rembrandt is the great master"2007-06-07
- Reviewed By User: A3RNF8EJATVIKP
This book explain a little about Rembrandt technique and some details in his paints. You can understand how could he painted so beutiful arts. But you won't be Rembrandt reading this book. Only the technique is not sufficient to be a master!
But, if you are a Rembrandt fan, you have to read this book!

- Reviewed By User: A1OR21G8JIA50E
This book is generous with loads of quality pictures of the masters work and an equal amount of text for the reader of history and the technical , a good buy certainly worth the money , I really enjoyed this and I suggest it to any one with even just a passing interest in Rembrandt and an insight into how he produced his work , they actually found some of his dna in his paintings (i bet that makes you curious). This and the other book " Rembrandt's Eyes by Simon Schama" is another beauty possibly a bit better than this one Schama's book spend the first half talking a about Peter Paul Rubens and the dreams Rembrandt had of being his equal , both are great companions to each other I recommend them together.
 
5 Star Rating  "Absolutely Essential"2007-02-09
- Reviewed By plaudus
There isn't much more I can say, which hasn't already been said to reveal the great merits of this book. However I think the sheer quantity of 5 star ratings speaks volumes. This book is essential for any academic or personal study of Rembrandt, especially so for a painter as I am. On top of all the incredible detailed scientific analysis, the text is written very clearly and is even a pleasure to read. Above all, the detail shots of his paint surface, are breath taking and most instructive for any painter. They utilized different levels of magnification to reveal his work from the entirety of the picture down to the microscopic level. This book has revolutionized my studio practice!

5 Star Rating  "Disecting the past."2007-01-20

Old fashioned detective work and modern technical tools means that soon we'll even know what these great artists had for breakfast on any given day. An excellent piece and more than worth the money.
 
3 Star Rating  "De Wetering : You should pay the dinner !"2007-01-20
- Reviewed By User: A3JEGQ95GBSSB9
This book is not easy to evaluate, at a first sight is a very irregular book, amazing in many passages but extremely boring in many others, a whole chapter dedicated to the canvas support !?, with a great mass of technical information about thread density and weave, I think it is too much, a very important Rembrandt's trick like "glazing and sweeping" (that it is supossed he created this technique) is just overviewed when it is perhaps one of the constituents for the most amazing passages in many of his paintings.
My conclusion is that despite of Rembrandt's Project and a lot of scholars studying his masterpieces is very, but very little what we know. How he commited his works is an enigma like in Vermeer's case, so there are a lot of books about them but very little valuable information
 
5 Star Rating  "Excellent"2006-11-20
- Reviewed By britishbrian2
This book is probably the best study of an individual artist's techniques I've yet to come across. If you have any interest in Rembrandt, whether it be as a art historian, artist or fan of the artist, this book should be an essential component of your library. The book details the results of extensive studies by the author and colleagues on the various techniques adopted by Rembrandt. The opening paragraphs provide background on the life of Rembrandt, the materials available to him, and the state of the art environment in which he worked.
This is followed by extensive studies of the techniques he used. Analytical methods such as xray, paint & varnish composition, microscopy, review of the canvas and wood supports etc. help the author to determine "Is every "Rembrandt" a Rembrandt?". The techniques used by Rembrandt as he tries to create various effects within the limitations of the paints etc he used, forms the foundation of the book. For any artists wanting to paint in the style of Rembrandt I can't imagine any book providing the degree of detail that is provided here.
The quality of the images are first class, majority in colour. The paper quality is also first rate. My only complaint is that the images are not numbered individually. You have to read the accompanying text to determine which image is which and where they are located on the page. I assume this was the result of printing considerations.
A first class book. And essential for anyone interested in Rembrandt and/or Dutch painting in the 1600's. 100% Recommended.
 
5 Star Rating  "Extraordinary"2006-07-19
- Reviewed By purelypygmalion
There are very few books on specific artist methods and materials that I would call extraordinary, and fewer still I would consider definitive. This book is both. The photographic illustrations, including some amazing close-ups, are fantastic, and the text, though at times quite technical, is engrossing. This is the most comprehensive and up-to-date reference on Rembrandt's painting materials and techniques you're likely to find for a long time to come. If you only own one book on Rembrandt, it should be this one.
 
5 Star Rating  "Everyone can be Rembrandt... NOT."2001-08-29
- Reviewed By the_extremely_untalented_artist
OK, so I read it all. Yep, everything in it, every inch of it. This includes in-depth discussions on materials, choices of colors, choices of canvases, panels, brushworks, techniques, history... of this genius painter. I also gobbled up scientific results on samples taken from his paintings, using such cutting-edge technologies as mass spectrometry (MS), x-ray analysis, and so on and so forth. Hurrah! All secrets revealed! I even read "between the lines" and "looking into" layers of colors in each painting with the hope of educating myself further how to think like Rembrandt, see like Rembrandt, and paint like Rembrandt. After all, I am on a mission here. You probably get the idea by now of how great this book is. Otherwise, I would have not bothered. Yep, you can count on it, it is GREAT! But... Yeah, without the 'but', then perhaps thing is just perfect, hence surreal. Some presumption in scientific testing seems to leave me a little "bitter aftertaste". Well, I said too much. It is time for me to stop and for you to read the book to find out for yourself.
