Rembrandt's work is an inexhaustible source of inspiration.
Inspired by the Master, photographers from the Leiden Amateur Photographers Association have made a series of portraits, landscapes and other scenes conveying their idea of the characteristic Rembrandt.
They tried to approach Rembrandt's 'light', and the work varies from studio recordings to recordings in the city and surroundings.
The old city of Leiden cherishes the 17th-century atmosphere with exceptional earthy colors and eternal play between dark and light cornerstones. Here, where the artist started his artistic journey, his fascinating spirit is still present along the city canals and alleys.
My photo is a picture of Het Galgewater, part of the Oude Rijn that is close to the place where Rembrandt was born.
It is inspired by the admiration for both the artistic sensitivity of Rembrandt and the city that breaths its “ light“ and colors.
