Overview
Learn about the life and art of the 17th century artist, Rembrandt Van Rijn, as told through the eyes of his (fictitious) young student, Mariska. She learns that Rembrandt attended a Latin school as a boy where he learned about the Bible and how these lessons influenced many of his works. He shares that his mastery in creating light in his painting was learned from his first teacher and that his largest painting depicting men preparing for battle was 12 feet wide by 14 feet wide. She also learns that Rembrandt created etchings of his works so he could print many copies of his drawings. Beautiful chronologically arranged reproductions of many of his early, and most famous paintings and etchings, are featured throughout the book. Content developed for young readers, grades 1-4 (ages 5-8) and is part of the acclaimed Renaissance Accelerated Reader program.
