Really there haven&#8217;t been all that many exciting experiences to report, though I&#8217;ve been having a great time here in Amsterdam.  Anyway, here&#8217;s the Rembrandt Museum, which I visited last week.  It&#8217;s set in and around Rembrandt&#8217;s actual house, including all the rooms where he used to work.  Above is a shot of the room where he made all his prints.  I was lucky enough to catch a demonstration of the process.  The demonstrator showed us by making a print using a replica of one of Rembrandt&#8217;s original plates.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/dagfooyo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/rembrandt-printshop2.jpg\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-223\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Here is a shot of his painting studio.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/dagfooyo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/rembrandt-studio.jpg\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-223\" \/><\/p>\n<p>It was too dark to get good shots of the many paintings hiding in here.  There were also three floors of beautiful prints &#8211; I&#8217;d never realized before that Rembrandt was known in his time for his prints, and not his paintings.  Having seen the incredible use of light and crosshatchwork I can see why.<\/p>\n<p>I wish I could&#8217;ve found some of the more striking examples &#8211; the ones below are nice but not the best I saw at the museum.  Should&#8217;ve noted the names of the prints I guess.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/dagfooyo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/85517-004-fc3a48fa.jpg\" alt=\"Rembrandt - Three Trees\" title=\"Rembrandt - Three Trees\" width=\"550\" height=\"418\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-228\" srcset=\"http:\/\/dagfooyo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/85517-004-fc3a48fa.jpg 550w, http:\/\/dagfooyo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/85517-004-fc3a48fa-300x227.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/dagfooyo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/1961_4_4.jpg\" alt=\"Rembrandt - faces\" title=\"Rembrandt - faces\" width=\"338\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-229\" srcset=\"http:\/\/dagfooyo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/1961_4_4.jpg 338w, http:\/\/dagfooyo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/1961_4_4-211x300.jpg 211w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 338px) 100vw, 338px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-208","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/dagfooyo.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/208","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/dagfooyo.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/dagfooyo.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/dagfooyo.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/dagfooyo.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=208"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"http:\/\/dagfooyo.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/208\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":231,"href":"http:\/\/dagfooyo.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/208\/revisions\/231"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/dagfooyo.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=208"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/dagfooyo.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=208"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/dagfooyo.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=208"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
