Rembrandt Painting's Layers Removed, Revealing Original Intent and Attribution
Layers of overpaint have been removed from a 17th-century painting, confirming it as a Rembrandt and revealing changes to figures, including a turban replaced by a cap. The restoration highlights Rembrandt's original vision of tolerance and diversity, inspired by 17th-century Holland's multicultural society. The painting, depicting 'Let the Little Children Come Unto Me,' will be auctioned by Sotheby's in London.
