Rembrandt's House. Amsterdam.

I went to the  Rembrandt's house, although Rembrandt was was bankrupt and all his goods were sold.   The Dutch had a list of all the furniture and items that were sold from the home to cover his debts. So when the house was purchased and made into a museum they knew the kind of furniture and items they would need to refurbish the house to the same style as his era.

This is the the type of bed that Rembrandt would have slept in.

I  found  the house delightful with very quirky spiral staircases. The rooms were large and spacious but his studio was the largest room of the house and the only one that had two fires  installed. I have only put a small selection of his work on my blog as there were too many for me to show.
I felt very privileged to be able to wander around the house Rembrandt lived in and look out the windows that he would have glanced out of from time to time looking at the same canal view outside.
