The project shares high-resolution images accompanied by insight from Rembrandt expert Peter Schatborn and Head of the Rijksmuseum Printroom Jane Turner. The online platform also features a tool for downloading images or saving them on your museum account called your Rijksstudio, and you can even order a print directly from the image view.
