Trade Review
"Thoughtful, illuminating…This portrait will delight both casual art fans and connoisseurs alike." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"A fresh, well-researched, nuanced portrait." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
"Fascinating…Blom’s method is persuasive: he follows the painter around Leiden’s streets and over its bridges…to create the world that shaped him. As a result, the book is a biography of the city too." -- Michael Prodger - Times (UK)
"A meticulous picture of 17th-century Leiden…Blom is an insightful art critic, especially when he dips into blockbusters of Rembrandt’s maturity." -- Jonathan McAloon - Financial Times
"Young Rembrandt is well-researched and it certainly widens our understanding of the local historical context." -- Sue Prideaux - New Statesman
