Have you seen this one, also a self-portrait by Rembrandt? Aged 23 in this painting. It lives in the Isabella Gardner Museum in Boston. I always make sure to visit him when I’m in town.

Ah, I didn’t notice. What a stunning portrait. Love the way half his face is concealed in the shadow, and how the light shines on the chain resting on his shoulder.
