🌗 Light or darkness – which tells the story better? See how Dutch artist Rembrandt van Rijn shifted from light to dark in his print 'The Entombment'
👀 Take a closer look. He didn’t paint over the printed lines – he re-worked the copperplate use to print the image.
By adding more etched and engraved marks to the plate, and leaving a thin veil of ink across the surface, he turned light into darkness and changed the mood entirely.
Rembrandt printed 'The Entombment' many times, changing how he inked and wiped the plate each time to create different effects. He may have done this to attract collectors who were keen to find these unique differences.
