The Greek philosopher stands in contemplative half-shadow, one hand resting on a bust of Homer while a medallion bearing the likeness of Alexander the Great — Aristotle's former pupil — hangs from a gold chain across his chest, staging a meditation on fame, wisdom, and the different kinds of immortality earned by the poet, the philosopher, and the conqueror.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCommissioned by the Sicilian nobleman Antonio Ruffo, this was the first in a series of \"philosopher\" paintings Rembrandt would produce for him. The chiaroscuro is at its most masterful here, with warm golden light picking out the philosopher's face and richly textured sleeve against a deep, enveloping darkness — Rembrandt at the absolute height of his mature power.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHeld in the collection of \u003cb\u003eThe Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York\u003c\/b\u003e, this masterwork is presented here as a \u003cb\u003epremium stretched canvas reproduction\u003c\/b\u003e, printed on museum-quality matte canvas and hand-wrapped around a solid 0.75-inch gallery wrap frame — ready to hang and built to last.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;margin-top:24px;font-size:14px\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eArtist\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRembrandt van Rijn\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eYear\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1653\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eMedium\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOil on canvas\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eDimensions\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e56 1\/2 x 53 3\/4 in.
