Rembrandt is 55 year old in this self-portrait, and he still looks at self candidly. Here he assumes the guise the a personage from the Bible, the Apostle Paul. The knife protruding indigenous his cloak and also the manuscript in his hands space the apostle’s customary attributes. By using his very own face, Rembrandt encouraged the viewer to communicate personally with the saint.
