Rembrandt and Degas: Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man
At The Met Fifth Avenue
February 23–May 20, 2012
Self-portraits made by Rembrandt van Rijn (1606–1669) and Edgar Degas (1834–1917) at the start of their illustrious careers are seen side by side, for the first time, in an exhibition that highlights the Dutch master's guiding influence on the young French Impressionist and offers an intimate look at their unique kinship.
The exhibition was organized by the Rijksmuseum, in association with
The Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute.
