The lecture refutes the reading that claims the painting, Portrait of an Elderly Woman in a White Bonnet, is not drawn by Rembrandt, a famous Dutch painter, by clarifying the three arguments the reading presents.
First, the lecture elucidates the inconsistency about the way the woman in the portrait is dressed. By assuming that she is a servant from her linen cap in the portrait, the reading questions why the woman is also wearing a luxurious fur collar that a servant cannot afford. On the other hand, the lecture clarifies that the fur collar is not part of Rembrandt’s original painting. The recent research using x-rays reveals that someone added the fur collar about 100 years later to increase the value of the painting.
Second, the lecture maintains that the portrait illustrates the realistic color of the light reflection under the additional fur collar painting. The reading suspects the incoherent description of the light and shadow. The reading identifies that the below the face should not be illuminated as much as other parts of the face because the fur collar would have absorbed the light. However, the lecture indicates that light and shadow are realistic and coherent in the original painting without the additional fur collar.
Third, the lecture specifies the reason why the portrait was painted on several wooden panels. Considering this use of panels as an exception for Rembrandt’s works, the reading doubts that the origin of painting is Rembrandt. In contrast, the lecture explains the panels were glued together with the original paintings when the fur collar was added. With the aid of additional panels, the portrait raises its value. Moreover, the lecture adds her credibility by stating that the wooden panels of the portrait are from the same tree as the wooden panels of another Rembrandt’s work, Self-Portrait with a Hat.
In conclusion, the lecture refutes the reading’s argument that Rembrandt did not paint Portrait of an Elderly Woman in a White Bonnet by expounding on three counter-arguments.
