"The Night Watch" | By Rembrandt van Rijn

$49.95

Rembrandt transforms a simple civic guard portrait into a cinematic spotlight moment — all swagger, shadows, and musket smoke. Your cat gets it. That’s exactly how they walk into the kitchen at 3 a.m. — confident, dramatic, and way too loud for the hour.

    • The Master: Rembrandt van Rijn

    • Year Painted: 1642

    • Style: Baroque

    • Light Play: The famous “spotlight” effect wasn’t from an actual lamp — Rembrandt painted it that way to direct your gaze, centuries before cinema learned the trick.

    • Squad Goals: The painting shows Captain Frans Banning Cocq’s militia company — every member paid to be included (cats would’ve charged double).

    • Size Matters: Originally larger, the canvas was trimmed on all sides in 1715 to fit a new location. The cropped figures are now forever mid-stride.

    • Rembrandt’s Flex: Each face glows like a solo performance — he turned a group commission into a symphony of egos and light.

    🐾 Feline Twist: Who turned on the lights? Oh right ~ it’s me. The drama’s starting, and yes, I’m the main character.

    • Approx. 23”W x 18.5”H

    • Large format, vibrant, high-quality print on durable, semi-rigid thermoplastic.
