We just saw a lovely exhibition of over 100 of Rembrandt's etchings at the Nagoya-Boston Museum of Fine Art. My favourites were the biblical ones as they were so detailed. I also liked the way he portrayed street people, often sneaking in a self-portrait of himself as a beggar or something (see pic). I think that if Rembrandt were around today, he'd have great fun making etchings of people in Japan as there are some great costumes and hairstyles.
