The World of Rembrandt by Robert Wallace (Color Illustrated Hardcover)

“The World of Rembrandt” is also a volume in the Time-Life Library of Art series, which was published in the 1960s and 1970s. The series aimed to provide readers with a comprehensive survey of the history of art, with each volume focusing on a particular artist, period, or style.

As with other volumes in the series, “The World of Rembrandt” includes a wealth of illustrations, with both color and black-and-white reproductions of Rembrandt’s paintings, drawings, and etchings. The book also includes a helpful glossary of art terms and a bibliography for further reading.

Overall, “The World of Rembrandt” is a valuable addition to the Time-Life Library of Art series, and provides readers with a comprehensive and accessible introduction to one of the greatest artists of all time.
