Add a CommentWhile Rembrandt is in the book, he is a peripheral character. The book addresses the time he lived in, but not him as an artist.
Nice addition to our Dutch study.
Beautifully illustrated story about the Netherlands in the time of the tulipmania. The story is told from the point of view of a little girl who's father is a tulip dealer. While the story is simple, the illustrations are reminiscent of the Dutch masters of the time. A nice book to explain what happened in the Netherlands (and the world) at the time. Also good as an example of the boom and bust cycle.
