Over het werk

This little etching, datable on stylistic grounds around 1656, shows Titus, the son of Rembrandt and Saskia, as a 15-year-old teenager. His father needed only a bare minimum of lines to portray him, and Titus’s shock of hair and pensive gaze are particularly striking. Rembrandt did not print this plate often, but, when he did, it was usually on special Japanese paper.

    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.

  6. 1658

    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.
