Rembrandt's Money

Welcome, or welcome back again.

When I tell people that Rembrandt, the famous Dutch painter, went bankrupt, half of them just didn't know. The other half had sometimes, some only vaguely, heard of it. Most people would like to know a lot more about it.

Well, the this podcast caters to their needs.

This happens in two ways. By telling the story, in short and summarized, in about twenty minutes mentioning my most important findings.

And by writing, a larger piece. This is published as an addendum to the podcast and can be visited via www.rembrantsmoney.com. It will cover the most important legal rules that apply to the this banktruptcy proceeding. Note, these are rules from almost 400 years ago. One has to know these rules, because they have to be applied to the few facts we know about Rembrandts financial position.

For a few years I did extensive research, leading to my book of Rembrandt’s Money. The legal and financial life of an artist-entrepreneur in 17th century Holland. The first edition of the book Rembrandt’s Money, published in autumn 2021. It is nearly sold out.
