The two paintings newly attributed to Rembrandt at the Rembrandt House Museum in Amsterdam. The Special Guests display, which opened last month, marks the return of the Portrait of Petronella Buys (1635) and Man with a Sword (around 1640-44) to the Netherlands for the first time in a century.

The pair of portraits will be on view at the Amsterdam museum until 2 September. In early 2019, they are expected to travel to Louvre Abu Dhabi, the last venue to host a major exhibition of the Leiden Collection’s Dutch Golden Age masterpieces. Launching the international tour at the Louvre in Paris in February 2017, Kaplan said the planned Abu Dhabi show was “my dream Rembrandt exhibition”.
