Om værket

Arnout Tholinx was a celebrated Amsterdam physician and the brother-in-law of Rembrandt’s friend Jan Six. Rembrandt’s portrayal of Tholinx is masterful. He is interrupted while reading, spectacles in hand, and looks out at us expectantly. Rembrandt emphasizes Tholinx’s eyes by having additional light fall on them just below the brim of his hat.

    Declaration of Insolvency

    Under pressure from creditors, Rembrandt declared himself insolvent (cessio bonorum) in July 1656 and voluntarily surrendered his property; by that time he had already transferred the house to his son.

  5. 1657–1658

    Sale of His Property and Collection

    Rembrandt's property and art collection were sold at auction; the detailed inventory listed 363 items — paintings, prints, antique busts, weapons, textiles, and exotic objects.

    Move to the Rozengracht

    After the house was sold at auction, the family left the prestigious Jodenbreestraat and moved to modest rented lodgings on the Rozengracht — a district of craftsmen and artists, where Rembrandt lived until the end of his life.
