Schutters van wijk II led by Captain Frans Banninck Cocq, known as the 'Night Watch', Rembrandt van Rijn, 1642.
Rembrandt's most famous and largest canvas was made for the Kloveniersdoelen. This was one of the association buildings of the Amsterdam militia, the civic guard of the city. Rembrandt was the first to display the figures in action on a group portrait. |
