Set in a single day in Amsterdam, Nina Siegal’s The Anatomy Lesson weaves together the stories behind Rembrandt’s famous group portrait of 1632. Well-researched and thoughtful, it envisions Rembrandt’s artistic process, the relationship between portraitist and sitter, and the vibrant world of 17th-century Amsterdam in beautiful prose. Join Bader Curator and Researcher of European Art Jacquelyn N.
