Original engraving by great artist Rembrandt, signed with plate and dated 1637.
Some have identified the figure before us with Rembrandt's self-portrait, and indeed similarities can be found between the figure before us and the self-portraiture illustrated by Rembrandt in particular for the self-portrait he illustrated 3 years later in 1640, though it is difficult to determine.
