Head Of Christ: Rembrandt

The Head of Christ is a 1648 painting by the Dutch artist Rembrandt
It is now in the Gemäldegalerie in Berlin.
These heads in varying poses were possibly created as devotional objects.

 Today about a dozen are known, but only this one is considered by the RRP to be by the master himself.

 It is one of the paintings that were in the large Rodolphe Kann collection purchased as a whole by Joseph Duveen and came into the collection via a bequest by Herr and Frau Martin Bromberg of Hamburg.

Head Of Jesus Is The Same As This Mans Head 

If You Go For The Head Of Jesus Think Again 

You May Get Heads Of Men Who Look, Walk and Talk Like Him
