Description

Rembrandt's former graphic workshop, Amsterdam, Netherlands.

The Rembrandt House is located in the Jodenbreestraat in Amsterdam, Netherlands, where Rembrandt lived and painted for a number of years, not far from the present-day city hall.

Rembrandt purchased the house in 1639 and lived there until he went bankrupt in 1656, when all his belongings went on auction. The auction list enabled the reconstructions of all his belongings which are also on display in the house.

Not far from the Chinese quarter of Amsterdam and right behind the Red Light District if you walk from the Dam square east, in a direct proximity of the Waterlooplein, the house stands which the famous Dutch painter Rembrandt owned and lived in.

The Rembrandt House in Amsterdam shows the unknown aspects of the famous painter's life and his artistic craft.

The house was built in 1606 and this date painted in gold decorates until today its front wall. It is relatively wide, built on two adjoining lots, then in the new and fashionable eastern part of the city. Many successful merchants and financiers also bought houses in this new part of town.
