A rare first edition of Curtis’s important study of Rembrandt’s most notable etchings, illustrated with fifty photogravure plates. Issued after the author’s 1883 descriptive catalogue of Velasquez and Murillo, this work opens with a biographical introduction asserting that an appreciation of Rembrandt’s etched oeuvre is essential to true artistic cultivation: “No test of one's taste and higher cultivation is more sure than the love for and capacity of appreciating these marvelous works. (…) If we may judge from the past, there is nothing whose value is more sure than the etchings of Rembrandt.” (From the introduction to the present work). Each of the fifty plates is accompanied by a title leaf and followed by detailed historical and descriptive commentary.
