Whether this painting was a genuine Rembrandt was in doubt for many years. As a result, it has undergone extensive research and conservation treatment over the past few years. It is now back on display and the verdict is in: Saul and David is indeed a Rembrandt.
The Biblical king Saul suffers from bouts of depression and is soothed by the young David who plays the harp for him. In a particularly striking detail, Saul dries his tears on the curtain. But Saul will soon fly into a rage and throw his spear at David.
Saul and David was considered one of Rembrandt’s most famous paintings and a highlight of the Mauritshuis collection from the time of its acquisition in 1898 until 1969, when it’s attribution was rejected and the picture lost much of its allure.
After a long period of study and treatment, the painting is once again the focus of attention as the centrepiece of the exhibition Rembrandt? The Case of Saul and David. In the exhibition we tell the gripping story of the painting’s history, the research, the conservation treatment and the advanced techniques that were used. And we give the final answer: Yes, it's a Rembrandt!
