Rembrandt van Rijn. Painted 1631.

Here the light comes from behind the old woman: the brightest illumination falls on the book and her wrinkled hand, modelled with paint. Her face remains in shadow. She could be the prophetess Anna, an elderly widow who, according to the Bible, served God through fasting and prayer. Tradition has it that Rembrandt’s mother posed for this painting.

From the collection of the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam. Currently on display in Main building, The young Rembrandt / The peace treaty of Münster 1648, 17th Century.
