2. Rembrandt Van Rijn byl nizozemský malíř. Vnesl do své malířské tvorby šerosvit neboli temnosvit, způsob malby, který pracuje s kontrasty světla a stínu. Za svůj život namaloval na 800 obrazů, 300 grafických listů a 2.000 kreseb. Zajímavé je velké množství jeho autoportrétů. V roce 1625 nastává Rembrandtovo první umělecké období, kdy tvoří v ateliéru v otcově domě v Leidenu. V r. 1632 se stěhuje do Amsterodamu. Pro malíře nastává období štěstí a přepychu. V r. 1642 umírá žena Saskie. Pro Rembrandta nastává těžké období života. Jsou potíže s financemi, malíř upadá do bídy. Umírá a je pak pochován v kostele ve Westerkerku. Jeho malby jsou dnes stále vysoce ceněny a obdivovány po celém světě.
