Why Rembrandt House Museum matters
Rembrandt lived here during his most successful years, and the house has been rebuilt to show how he lived and worked. You see his studio, the rooms where he showed art to clients and his cabinet of curiosities. Demonstrations of etching and pigment-making bring the craft to life. It is a good choice if you want something more intimate than the big museums.
Talking points
- Rembrandt lived and worked here in the seventeenth century.
- Rooms are set up to look as they did in his day.
- Demonstrations show how artists made paint and prints.
