Additions to Rembrandt’s Stoning of Saint Stephen

14 September 2018

We are pleased to announce that the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Lyon has been so generous to share their research data on Rembrandt’s earliest signed and dated painting; The stoning of Saint Stephen.

As a result of our partnership with the C2RMF in Paris, the center for research and conservation of the French museums, we’ve already published some documents of Lyon’s Rembrandt on our website. Thanks to our collaboration with the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Lyon this data has been complemented by early photographs as well as a more recent high-resolution image.

Many thanks to Henrique Simoes, Image Service Manager, who provided us the research data.
