Thanks, somehow his paintings always draw me in and I can connect with the persons portrayed.

I hope all museums leave their Rembrandts alone, and do not get the disastrous idea of "cleaning to discover the original colors", which so often means ruining great works by removing subtle and beautiful tones and glazes probably applied deliberately by the great artist. This is my pet peeve with conservators. Once great works of art are destroyed, that's it, cannot be undone.
