À propos de l’œuvre
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.

Birth of His Daughter Cornelia
In 1654 Rembrandt and Hendrickje's daughter Cornelia was born; the parish council censured Hendrickje for "sinful cohabitation" with the artist.

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.

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.
