Talk:Hundred Guilder Print

subject: Rembrandt: Experimental Etcher attribution
I've added Rembrandt: Experimental Etcher, the monograph/catalogue created by the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and the Morgan Library for the exhibition of 1969. It did not have a ISBN, but did have a Library of Congress Catalogue Card No. (77-93138). I have seen this book re-printed before, but have not yet gone to find the ISBN of that, since my source is a hard copy of the book from 1969 -- in addition to the material evidence found in the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, itself, that is, the actual prints, which I also referenced by URLs to the collection. If I can find a copy of the re-print and confirm it's the same, I'll seek out the ISBN number. In the meantime, if anyone else can update the ISBN after verification, I welcome you to do so! Thanks!

subject: Lugt Collection
I know the print is also in the Lugt Collection, since it was referenced in the recent Rembrandt show at the Frick (2011). But will look up documentary evidence and add that later (unless someone else can get to it first).

subject: some proposed additions

 * the techniques of (etching), drypoint and burin should probably be remarked...
 * the discussion of papers used might be interesting. i know Rembrandt really experimented with both technique and paper quite intensively. He used Japanese paper on several versions of this print, as well as vellum! this is not atypical of his experimental style though, as expressed in Rembrandt: Experimental Etcher mentioned above. Is this too esoteric to add?
 * lily in shield watermark that's found on some of the pullings of this print might be nice to mention and find an image of (there's an image in the book above, but I still need to figure out the copyright issues)

I welcome any comments, thoughts, suggestions on the ideas above!

subject: list of links
Some bot will probably notice that I added a list of links for "Location of Print" section. For editors viewing this, I believe this is appropriate for the following reasons: -- Kshih (talk) 07:30, 4 September 2011 (UTC)
 * 1) These links are to major world institutions and/or well-known collections
 * 2) The nature of this being a "masterwork" of Rembrandts, their whereabouts are of general interest to someone reading this article
 * 3) Given that the various prints themselves are different from each other, enumerating some of the major locations will be useful to those interested in the topic and provide a nice reference for those who may seek to visit them, in person. In particular, adding the location of the vellum prints would be useful, as they are quite distinct. any help would be appreciated.
 * 4) As I added the Baille history, the reference to actual prints in the MFA are particularly useful, though they are reference in the book, as well.
 * 5) The list of prominent locations helps to substantiate the textual evidence, as well, for this being an "important" work by Rembrandt, particularly of his prints (in addition to "Christ Crucified between the Two Thieves"). Though, that claim of being an "important" "masterwork" hasn't been made explicitly yet in this article, it is made by several of the sources cited, as well as numerous other literature that exists on Rembrandt.

Expansion offered by user:Duncan is cool!
On 11 March 2012, a new user added extensive material to this page. This was reverted later that day by StAnselm. 

"Duncan is cool" then added citations to a copy in his sandbox. However, he did not implement these, and quit editing Wikipedia.

It may be that some of the work he undertook could usefully be inserted here. – Fayenatic  L ondon 14:46, 4 January 2018 (UTC)
 * It was a partial revert which retained the material which was referenced. Is there any referenced material in the sandbox which is not present in the article? StAnselm (talk) 16:35, 4 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Yes, as I said, he added citations in his sandbox. See comparison. – Fayenatic  L ondon 21:32, 9 December 2018 (UTC)
 * After looking at various versions, I've gone back to the 2012 one before these additions, not all of which had been removed. Johnbod (talk) 23:23, 9 December 2018 (UTC)
