The Jewish Bride
The Jewish Bride, an oil painting on canvas by Rembrandt dating from circa 1667. Described by Christoper White as "one of the greatest expressions of the tender fusion of spiritual and physical love in the history of painting", the painting obtained its likely inaccurate current name in the 19th century.Painting: Rembrandt

Van Gogh quote

[edit]

There's a good van Gogh quote about this painting, something about giving years of his life for 14 days contemplating the painting with only a crust of bread, reasonably wel attested I think. I'll see about adding it when I get the chance. Please, someone, catch me if it's known to be apocryphal. --D Anthony Patriarche (talk) 22:24, 7 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
