This month art lecturer Hilary Williams will be the speaker for the evening.
Alone among the famous artists of the 17th Century, Rembrandt did not go to Rome. He stayed in Amsterdam, vying with his great contemporary Rubens, to be a “History” painter.
To earn his living, he specialised in portraiture, in which he gained great success.
