    Rembrandt van Rijn (Dutch, 1606–1669)

    A ghostly hand etches fiery letters across the banquet hall as golden goblets slip from trembling fingers. The revelry dies mid-laugh—royal faces frozen between arrogance and terror. Babylon’s last feast shatters beneath divine judgment scrawled in light upon the wall.

  • The raising of Lazarus (after Rembrandt)

    The raising of Lazarus (after Rembrandt)

    Vincent van Gogh (Dutch, 1853–1890)

    A shrouded figure emerges from shadow, half-alive, as bystanders recoil in awe. The air hums with tension between death and revival, light clawing at the darkness. Rembrandt’s ghost lingers in the strokes, but the scene pulses with raw, urgent energy—less a miracle, more a struggle.
