Clement de Jonghe is a 1651 ink by Rembrandt, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This is a black-and-white portrait of a man in a wide-brimmed hat and a high-collared coat. He sits with his hands folded, looking straight ahead. The lines in the print are rough and textured, especially on his coat and hat. Notice how the artist used different tools to create layers of shading—some areas look scratched, others pressed. This makes the fabric look real. Next, check out etching, drypoint, burin to see how artists like Rembrandt made prints like this.
Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn (15 July 1606 – 4 October 1669), known mononymously as Rembrandt, was a Dutch Golden Age painter, printmaker, and draughtsman.
