Biography - Born in Leiden in 1606, Rembrandt was to become the most important artist of the Dutch Golden Age. His unparalleled skills and achievements as an etcher have made him a continuous source of inspiration to scholars and collectors alike, as well as a profound influence on many later artists, including Goya, Whistler and Picasso.
The technical mastery and inventiveness with which Rembrandt made his 300 or so etchings was already recognised in his lifetime and his prints were widely sought after. Baldinucci, the famous Florentine biographer, praised Rembrandt's 'highly bizarre technique, which he invented for etching and which was his alone, being neither used by others or seen elsewhere' (1686). Rembrandt died in 1669.

Hi there I was thinking of buying a Rembrandt etching. I wonder if someone could answer a question for me please, I have moved recently to Cairns in Australia which is in the tropics. During the hot months the Humidity can reach up to 80% and a temp of 39c. Would an etching be okay in this kind of climate? Thank you
