About this listen

In Part 2 of The Night Watch Mystery, we step deeper into the shadows of Rembrandt’s masterpiece. This chapter traces the strange and violent history of the painting’s attacks, explores the accusations that swirled around the militia it depicts, and considers what these stories reveal about Amsterdam in the 1600s. Alongside the canvas, we follow Rembrandt himself—his battles with loss, financial ruin, and the weight of -possible- depression. We also look at the theory that an eye condition may have shaped the way he saw the world, and the way he painted it.
