Alexandre Calame 1810-1864 “Chalets at Rigi” 1861 Photo is taken by: @robertpuffjr Calame was the leading landscape painter of 19th-century Switzerland. Here, mountain-top chalets have become almost like features of the landscape into which they seem to sink, their steep roofs catching sunlight.

Rembrandt 1606-1669 “Self Portrait at the Age of 34” 1640 Oil on canvas Photo is taken by: @robertpuffjr Rembrandt presents himself as wealthy, successful and confident, in keeping with his position as one of Amsterdam's leading painters. His pose is taken fromTitian's Man with a Quilted Sleeve (on display elsewhere in the Gallery), which was then thought to depict the Italian poet Ludovico Ariosto. Copying this famous pose was a bold statement: that painters were the equal of poets. (This writeup is taken from the description at museum.)

Rembrandt 1606-1669 “Self Portrait at the Age of 63” 1669 Oil on canvas Photo is taken by: @robertpuffjr Rembrandt appears quite frail in this moving likeness painted in the final year of his life: his hands are limp, his skin is pasty, and even his characteristic wiry hair seems subdued. Still, the portrait is painted with great sensitivity. Paint is thickly applied in the highlighted areas of the face, while darker areas are more thinly painted.

Thomas Gainsborough (1727-1788) Mr and Mrs William Hallett ('The Morning Walk') 1785 Oil on canvas Photo is taken by: @robertpuffjr Gainsborough portrayed William Hallett (1764-1842) and Elizabeth Stephen (1763-1833) shortly before their marriage on 30 July 1785. They may be wearing their wedding clothes. Mrs Hallett's silk dress, the white fur of the Pomeranian sheepdog, and the foliage are evoked with the light brushstrokes Gainsborough used in the last phase of his career.
