Self-portrait, Leaning Forward — History & Facts
Rembrandt must have had a substantial collection of headgear. Here we see him in a cap pulled forward, a kutchma (a Polish fur hat) and a velvet beret with a visor. Incidentally, in Rembrandt’s time such berets were considered old-fashioned and reminiscent mainly of 16th-century head coverings.
