Drie vrouwenhoofden, één licht geëtst
- Date
- c. 1637
- Medium
- paper
- Institution
- Rijksmuseum
In 1634 Rembrandt married Saskia Uylenburgh, the daughter of a mayor of Leeuwarden. Almost all of the heads in these studies are of her. Rembrandt evidently thoroughly enjoyed portraying his new bride in ever-different poses. The fluid lines suggest that he drew directly on the etching ground, at times without his models being aware of it.
