Rembrandt emerges at the AGA - Part three: Rembrandt and Tronies
In our third video featuring 'Leiden circa 1630: Rembrandt Emerges', we look at the use of "tronies" in the exhibition. Tronies depict people, sometimes stock characters in costume, emphasizing facial expressions and features.
Tronies are different from portraits. A portrait is a representation of a specific individual. A tronie may accurately represent the sitter’s appearance, but its purpose is to represent a character type (often costumed and/or exaggerated).
Images featured:
Rembrandt van Rijn, The Artist’s Mother Seated at a Table, Looking Right: Three-Quarter-Length, c. 1631, etching on paper, state 2 of 3. Art Gallery of Ontario, Toronto. Gift Esther and Sam Sarick, 2006 (2006/270).
Jan Lievens, Profile Head of an Old Woman (“Rembrandt’s Mother”), c. 1630, oil on panel. Agnes Etherington Art Centre, Queen’s University, Kingston. Gift of Alfred and Isabel Bader, 2005 (48-001).
