Introduction
From wealthy patrons to a self-portrait, choose a theme below to explore a Rembrandt portrait in the National Gallery collection.
In each section, you will find a range of images and explanations. If you click on the caption below each image, you will be taken to a web page where you can use the zoom function to get closer to the paintings and study details close up.
We have also provided a word bank for you, which includes all glossary terms highlighted in the resource, and a PowerPoint presentation with further information about a selection of the images and suggested activities and discussion points in the notes.
