Mais elle est remarquable par cette profondeur, cette fusion de teintes harmonieuses et transparentes par cette magie, pour m'exprimer suivant l'usage, que le célèbre Rembrandt découvrit le premier dans les couleurs de sa palette, et qui est encore un secret pour beaucoup de peintres d'un grand mérite. Ajoutons à cette qualité une exécutions large, un modelé savant, et nous n'aurons rien dit de trop à l'éloge de ce portrait. On croit que c'est celui du père de Rembrandt. Sa tête est nue, son visage, vu trois quarts, est caractérisé par des traits fortements prononcées, son expression, d'accord avec de son vêtement, indique un homme du commun.’) date QS:P,+1885-00-00T00:00:00Z/7,P1326,+1885-00-00T00:00:00Z/9 : Sir William Wellesley Knighton, 2nd Baronet (1811–1885), Blendworth Lodge, Hampshirebetween 21 May 1885 and 23 May 1885 date QS:P,+1885-05-00T00:00:00Z/10,P1319,+1885-05-21T00:00:00Z/11,P1326,+1885-05-23T00:00:00Z/11 : purchased by Lesser (art dealer), London, at the sale of the collection of Collection Sir William Wellesley Knighton at Christie, London, lot no. 482, for £162.15s (as ‘Rembrandt. 482 Portrait of the Artist's Father; signed and dated; 31 in. by 26 in.’)by 1889 date QS:P,+1889-00-00T00:00:00Z/7,P1326,+1889-00-00T00:00:00Z/9 : Sir John Charles Robinson (1824-1913), London
