An amazing work of art in dedication to Rembrandt by Parisian artist Amand -Durand (1831-1905) titled "Self Portrait Drawing At a Window." Encased in a frame under glass, this etching comes with a certificate of authenticity on the back.

A brief history of the artist:
Armand-Durand, born in Paris, France, 1831, became a master engraver early in his career. He deeply admired the 15th, 16th and 17th century Old Masters' engravings and saw how they lost quality and faded from the ravages of time. This realization, combined with in-depth research throughout public and private collections of these masters, inspired his dedication to recreate their images and preserve the original quality for future generations. After Amand-Durand's passing in 1905, his original copper plates were obtained by the prestigious French book publishers, Dominique Vincent et Cie. They mainly published the work for book illustrations, but sporadically sold it to private parties interested in this unique creation.
