At the centre a captain in black with a red sash and white collar gestures with an open hand beside a lieutenant in pale gold with a white sash, a steel gorget and a partisan. Around them guardsmen raise pikes and muskets, a man in red loads his gun, a drummer beats at the right, a dog crouches below, and a girl in a pale gold dress glows among the figures at the left.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRembrandt painted the canvas in 1642 for the great hall of the Kloveniersdoelen, headquarters of Amsterdam's arquebusiers' civic guard. The Rijksmuseum reads it as the first group portrait to show its sitters actually doing something: the captain orders his lieutenant to start the company marching while the guardsmen fall into formation, and the light picks out his gesturing hand and the girl who served as the company's mascot. The City of Amsterdam has lent it to the museum since 1808.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe original: oil on canvas, 1642; Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRembrandt van Rijn (1606–1669) was a Dutch painter, etcher and draughtsman working in Leiden and Amsterdam, and is generally regarded as one of the greatest artists in Western art history. He painted group portraits such as The Anatomy Lesson of Dr Nicolaes Tulp (1632, Mauritshuis) and The Night Watch (1642, Rijksmuseum), alongside numerous self-portraits, including one from around 1628 also in the Rijksmuseum. Across his career he additionally produced around 300 etched plates, among them The Hundred Guilder Print (c. 1647–49); the Rijksmuseum alone holds some 1,300 impressions of his prints. His paintings and prints are held by the Rijksmuseum and Mauritshuis in the Netherlands, the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the National Gallery in London.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach print is made to our \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/archival-museum-standards\"\u003eArchival Museum Standards\u003c\/a\u003e: a 12-ink giclée, printed to order.
