I happened to walk past a thrift store that had a huge (not quite as large as the original - but still quite large) replica of this painting in a beautiful golden frame. I'm glad to say I now happily have this in my office and its a painting that never ceases to interest my eye as there is just so much detail. I will say though, and this is likely the case with most replicas, the color is quite dulled in comparison to what we are seeing here in the original, meaning some of the finer detail as you look further back is less obvious than it would appear on the original painting. Nevertheless I love it and I'm so glad I found it before someone else snagged it!

Oh, lucky you. I have a fairly large copy of a painting in a fancy gilded frame, but it's nowhere near as famous as this one: "The Construction of a Road (1774) by Claude-Joseph Vernet. I've had it for over 40 years and I remember the price (at Smith & Caughey) was NZ$425, but I paid $180 for mine.

I learned this from Simon Schama's book 'Rembrandt Eyes' (I never would've spotted it myself) but you can see a humorous, sly glimpse of Rembrandt himself at 4:28 - 4:34 , in the upper-left corner peeking over between the shoulders of the man with the yellow hat and the guy in the helmet; much like a bystander standing on his toes, trying to look over a crowd.

Shine, shine, the light of good works shine The watch before the city gates depicted in their prime That golden light all grimy now Three hundred years have passed The worthy Captain and his squad of troopers standing fast The artist knew their faces well The husbands of his lady friends His creditors and councillors In armour bright, the merchant men Official moments of the guild In poses keen from bygone days The city fathers frozen there Upon the canvas dark with age The smell of paint, a flask of wine And turn those faces all to me The blunderbuss and halberd-shaft And Dutch respectability They make their entrance one by one Defenders of that way of life The redbrick home, the bourgeoisie Guitar lessons for the wife So many years we suffered here Our country racked with Spanish wars Now comes a chance to find ourselves And quiet reigns behind our doors We think about posterity again And so the pride of little men The burghers good and true Still living through the painter's hand Request you all to understand

Arquebus is such a cool name. I'm with the guy who was just behind the gun that was fired - bit too close for comfort! "...in her beautiful dress, she's got a dead chicken that's been hung upside down from her belt..." Pause. lol. We're just gonna point that out and move on? 😅😂 Tbh, despite the uniformity, I like the Fals version too. So much thuggetry (lol) and personality in their poses that kept it interesting.

may be people are thinking about how why this master piece is still calling the attention in between all the maternices in the world for me is very simple i think because i can take the tram 7 get off and walk across to visit the Rijsmuseum, but is not that simple behind this painting is a plot and a style and all that makes a master piece to be always visit and apreciate

Great question! Rembrandt painted this painting in this way, along with a few other questionable areas in this work, because he knew that in these positions, along with this fellow we can't really make out, and the others,..... it will help tremendously in seeing the real secret. He knew the meaning of this painting would eventually come out. Rembrandt said himself,... "Just maybe four hundred years down the road if perhaps it's still in existence, people will understand what he was really doing, that he was on the right tracks and going in the right direction in making a motion picture for ones to see.

Stop this video at the time of 5:47 and imagine in your own minds if those three or four couples looking and pointing at this painting,... let's say if they all faced their partner,.... and someone turned on some good dancing music,..... wouldn't you think they would be interacting much better with what we are actually looking at?
