This superbly printed etching with fine detail, strong contrast, and delicate linework was pulled

From the ORIGINAL plate created by Rembrandt in 1648.

The plate, formerly in the collection of Dr.Robert Lee Humber (along with 77 other original Rembrandt etching plates) had been on loan to the North Carolina Museum of Art in Raleigh, NC since the early 1960's.

Upon Dr. Humber's death in 1970, his heirs sold the collection of plates to museums throughout the world, and a select group of private collectors in 1993.

The late master printer, Emiliano Sorini spent two years proofing the plate for this etching and along with Marjorie Van Dyke carefully studied various states and proofs of the etchings created from the plate.
