Rembrandt Harmensz. van Rijn
Erster Orientalenkopf
Beschreibung
A very fine impression of New Hollstein's second state (of five), printing with strong contrasts, fine vertical wiping scratches and touches of burr in the lower left corner. Before the addition of the landscape in the right-hand background – only one unique copy of the first state exists, in London. Early impressions are rare and are inscribed 'R +' in Nowell-Usticke. Trimmed on the platemark. – Isolated tiny brown spots and remnants of former mounting; otherwise in very good condition.
