Jan Lutma is a 1656 ink by Rembrandt, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This drawing shows an older man with a long white beard and a dark hat. He’s sitting in a chair, holding a walking stick in one hand and resting his other hand on the armrest. Behind him, a window with a curtain lets in light, and two small lions sit on the windowsill. The artist used a mix of lines to show texture—like the folds in his clothes and the fur of the lions. This style was common in the 1600s for detailed portraits. Look up etching 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.
