Of the more than 350 original works by Rembrandt van Rijn, only 41 are held by Dutch collections. The rest are scattered in over 18 countries worldwide, 50 of which are not open to the public and some of which are damaged or lost. All the more special is the exhibition Discover Rembrandt. Starting July 6 at RAI Amsterdam, you will have the chance to admire the artist's complete oeuvre and learn more about his life. All the works have been reproduced in full size and are displayed in chronological order to tell a complete picture of the story of their creator.
