Sull’opera
Rembrandt was befriended for some time with the well-to-do Jan Six, who later served as mayor of Amsterdam. He portrays him here in a highly informal manner, standing near an open window and reading a book. The detailed, skilful rendering of the dark room, in particular, is an unsurpassed feat in the art of etching.

Beginning of His Relationship with Hendrickje Stoffels
In early 1649 Rembrandt grew close to the 23-year-old Hendrickje Stoffels, who had previously served as his maid. Her image appears in many works of his late period.
