Famous Paintings of Rembrandt - An Old Man's Tronie (c.1630-31)

 This is tronie, a study of the face of an old man full of personality. The painting was purchased at the end of the 19th century as a portrait of Rembrandt's father, Harmen Gerritsz van Rijn. Today, it is doubtful whether this was actually Rembrandt's father, and the attribution to Rembrandt is also uncertain. Maybe future research will reveal more about this. That is why there is still a question mark behind the name Rembrandt. (Mauritshuis, Amsterdam - Oil on panel, 46.9 x 38.8 cm)
