Art 2 - Rembrandt
Rembrandt van Rijn (Dutch 15 July 1606 – 4 October 1669) was a Dutch painter and etcher. He is generally considered one of the greatest painters and printmakers in European art and the most important in Dutch history. His contributions to art came in a period of great wealth and cultural achievement that historians call the Dutch Golden Age when Dutch Golden Age painting, although in many ways antithetical to the Baroque style that dominated Europe, was extremely prolific and innovative.
Having achieved youthful success as a portrait painter, Rembrandt's later years were marked by personal tragedy and financial hardships. Yet his etchings and paintings were popular throughout his lifetime, his reputation as an artist remained high and for twenty years he taught many important Dutch painters. Rembrandt's greatest creative triumphs are exemplified especially in his portraits of his contemporaries, self-portraits and illustrations of scenes from the Bible. His self-portraits form a unique and intimate biography, in which the artist surveyed himself without vanity and with the utmost sincerity.

Art Two - Self Portraits
Watch the short video. Natalia Stefanek creates a very realistic portrait drawing of Derren Brown. He starts with a sketch that is shown at the 30 second mark. This is the stage to work out proportions. It looks like he has traced and transferred his own sketch onto the drawing paper and then completed it using a variety of pencil grades.
