DUTCH PAINTINGS

Previously his prints essentially consisted of two tones, light and dark, but in The Hundred Guilder Print Rembrandt has introduced a predominant ground of grey half-tones, from which he proceeded either to highlights or much darker shadows.

Love can forbear, and Love can forgive ... but Love can never be reconciled to an unlovely object ... He can never therefore be reconciled to you sin, because sin itself is incapable of being altered; but He may be reconciled to your person, because that may be restored.
