收起Rembrandt is the most famous of the seventeenth-century Cutch painters. However, there are doubts whether some paintings attributed to Rembrandt were actually painted by him. One such painting is known as Portrait of an Elderly Woman in a White Bonnet. The painting was attributed to Rembrandt because of its style, and indeed the representation of the woman’s face is very much like that of portraits known to be by Rembrandt. But there are problems with the painting that suggest it could not be a work by Rembrandt.
First, there is something inconsistent about the way the woman in the portrait is dressed. She is wearing a white linen cap of a kind that only servants would wear –yet the coat she is wearing has a luxurious fur collar that no servant could afford. Rembrandt, who was known for his attention to the details of his subjects’ clothing, would not have been guilty of such an inconsistency.
Second, Rembrandt was a master of painting light and shadow, but in this painting there elements do not fit together. The face appears to be illuminated by light reflected onto is from below. But below the face is the dark fur collar, which would absorb light rather than reflect it. So the face should appear partially in shadow -- which is not how it appears. Rembrandt would never have made such an error.
Finally, examination of the back of the painting reveals that is was painted on a panel made of several pieces of wood glued together. Although Rembrandt often painted on wood panels, no painting known to be by Rembrandt uses a panel glued together in this way from several pieces of wood.
For these reasons the painting was removed for the official catalog of Rembrandt’s paintings in the 1930s.
