  • Where did Rembrandt get a camera?

  • @cyberfausto I believe he ordered from Dury's of Nashville or B& H

  • Good video! But how would rembrandt have done it, I mean he didn't have electricity so he must hav used natural daylight through the window to create the affect, unless he used candle light, not sure?

  • I think Window light would have been the most likely set up.

  • No problem! I can easily admit I don't know everything...but the main gist of my channel is to offer free support in helping others learn a few things...mostly in Photoshop. My intent is to help others rather than to debate history. Many historical figures have been credited with being the inventors of a particular thing,,,but in checking further we can discover, they were not the first. I love oil painting and water colors. Caravaggio is probably my most favorite artist, too!

  • Maybe you should be a bit more open-minded. Yes this type of lighting was used by many painters but if you had ever been educated in Photography or Studio Lighting, you would have been taught how to set up this lighting as well as split lighting and other setups. You would have been taught this lighting is called "Rembrandt Lighting" regardless of who used it first. Rembrandt Lighting is the name of the style of lighting as it is taught in photography programs throughout the nation.

  • thanks for educating us MA"AM
