Item Description: This is an antique print attributed to Rembrandt van Rijn, titled "Head of a Boy in Profile to the Left" (also known in catalogs as Bartsch 310, Hind 118, New Hollstein 117). It appears to be an etching or early reproduction made using traditional intaglio printing techniques. The print is on handmade laid paper with visible vertical chain lines and horizontal wire lines, which are characteristic of older hand-crafted papers (likely 18th or early 19th century). The sheet measures approximately 7.2 × 9.7 cm. A light plate mark is visible around the printed area, although not deeply embossed, which is consistent with an older plate that has been reprinted multiple times. The print shows a head of a young boy facing left, in Rembrandt’s typical style with fine hatchings and strong contrast. The upper margin includes the inscription “Rembrandt f. 164–”. There is no visible watermark. Condition: The print is in generally good antique condition with natural age toning and minor signs of handling. The paper is intact with no major tears. The image remains clear, and the ink lines are well preserved. No modern printing dots or mechanical reproduction marks are visible. Materials: Traditional laid (handmade) paper, printed using intaglio/etching technique (likely copperplate).
