We know Rembrandt as a painter and do not immediately think of him as a 'businessman'. However, the reality was far from this. Rembrandt has a story that often remains underexposed, full of intrigue, brutality and tough negotiations. As an entrepreneur, he knew exactly what was in demand and he continued to innovate himself. In this session, Koos de Wilt takes you on a journey back to the 17th century where our most important Dutch master of that time continued to confront problems in his own way.
