TPO-03 - Integrated Writing Task Rembrandt is the most famous of the seventeenth-century Dutch painters. However, there are doubts whether some paintings attributed to Rembrandt were actually painted by him. One such painting is known as attributed to Rem

The reading and the lecture both are discussing the painting of Rembrandt. The reading questions one of the Rembrandt's paintings asking "Was it actually Rembrandt's work?" There are various attributes that the author lists which were generally used by the painter but are absent in the painting. The professor casts doubts on each of the claims presented in the passage. She asserts that the painting was surely drawn by Rembrandt however there were some updates made after years which the author fails to notice.

First of all, the author claims that the woman in the painting is wearing the white linen cap usually wear by servants together with luxurious fur collar which a servant can hardly afford. The author further points out that this is not the quality Rembrandt possess. The point is challenged by the professor. She points out that the painting was updated 100 years later as the collar was not the part of the painting.

Secondly, the author of the analytical piece argues that the face appears to be illuminated by light which reflected from below where the fur collar lies which itself would absorb most of the it. He further questions "How Rembrandt could make such an error?" The professor refutes this by stating that the painting was updated with a fur collar whereas the original painting includes a simple collar which fails to absorb the light. Researchers found that this simple white collar was the reason the light reflected and eventually illuminated the lady's face.

Finally, the author states that Rembrandt used to paint on single wood panels quite often however the painting contained a panel glued together with several pieces of wood. On the other hand, the professor states that the painting was updated a century later resulting myriad changes. And as the result the painting was enlarged by appending several wood pieces so as to make it grand and more original. In addition, the same tree wood was used when several pieces were aggregated to enlarge the original or existing panel. This is enough evidence to prove that the painting was an eminent masterpiece of Rembrandt.

In conclusion, the professor effectively refutes each of the claims and theories presented in the passage.
