A graphic biography of the great master, Rembrandt van Rijn with details that are a little fuzzy. This book covers his painting career, love, and family life. Rembrandt was popular in his day but managed his money and fame poorly. He was cantankerous and perhaps a bit of an ass. His work endures, however and he is considered one of the great masters. More interesting is the way the art reveals something about Rembrandt's own style. I think the pictures here are more important than the story.
