Apprenticed in Rembrandt's workshop
After December 1635, when Bol is still recorded in Dordrecht as a painter, he works as an apprentice in Rembrandt's Amsterdam workshop (other accounts say already after 1630) and lives in his house. He followed his master so closely that many of his paintings were long attributed to Rembrandt himself, and Rembrandt even sold his pupil's work.
