A 'superb book. […] Bosman’s audacious claim provides a remarkable turnaround in the rendering of Rembrandt’s character, and marks a fundamental revision of his financial ruin. Bosman’s confidence, which enables him to go against the tide of existing scholarship, lies in his thorough historical research and careful fact-checking. […] Rembrandt is one of the few masters who are so well-researched that it is rather daunting to say anything new [...]. And yet this book manages to shed surprising new light onto his bankruptcy, with a wealth of evidence on Rembrandt’s fiscal, legal and relational matters. This book is an indispensable addition to Rembrandt's story, and urges scholars to revisit and re-examine the existing material thoroughly, and with an open mind.’
