painting of the day--rembrandt

Repro's of Rembrandt are nothing compared to the original but it
"beats nothing."

This is a great self portrait, if you really look at it those circles behind Rembrandt are very important and it is hard to imagine this painting w/o them. I sometimes think he added the circles as a final adjustment to fill in the "dead space." ---They are indeed the circles of genius.
