An in-depth look at the depiction of black people by Rembrandt and his contemporaries• Documents an exhibition at the Rembrandt House Museum in Amsterdam from March 6 - May 31, 2020. This exhibition catalogue tells the story of the black community in 17th century Dutch society and reveals how attitudes to race were expressed in the portrayal of black figures in Dutch art. Black people were present in 17th-century Holland, both in society and in art. This subject has long remained in the shadows, a situation this ground-breaking exhibition addresses. Rembrandt and many of his contemporaries made magnificent works of art that depict people of color. There was a small community of around 80 free black people of color living in the Jodenbreestraat neighborhood of Amsterdam during Rembrandt's lifetime. Painters during this period portrayed individual black models from life, and in a number of cases they formed the main subject of the art work. This book explores the conditions that gave rise to these remarkable works of art and the reasons the public image of black people changed from about 1660 onward. It tells the stories of the Dutch artists who aimed to capture their multi-racial world, and the impact of transatlantic slavery. Er waren zwarte mensen in het Nederland van de zeventiende eeuw. Zowel in de samenleving als in de kunst. Lang is dit onderbelicht gebleven. Onterecht : Rembrandt en vele van zijn tijdgenoten hebben namelijk prachtige kunstwerken gemaakt van zwarte mensen. 'Zwart in Rembrandts tijd' brengt ze voor het eerst samen. Wat valt op? De stereotypen die later het beeld van zwarte mensen zouden gaan bepalen, zijn nog niet overheersend. Er hebben mensen model gezeten en ze zijn naar de werkelijkheid weergegeven. Bovendien zijn zwarte personen niet alleen bijfiguren met een ondergeschikte rol, maar juist ook het centrale onderwerp van het kunstwerk. 'Zwart in Rembrandts tijd' probeert de omstandigheden waarin deze werken tot stand kwamen te verklaren. En hoe het komt dat de beeldvorming na circa 1660 veranderde. Over kunstenaars die de visuele wereld willen vastleggen, de impact van de trans-Atlantische slavernij en een kleine gemeenschap van vrije zwarte mensen in de Amsterdamse Jodenbreestraat.
