Abstract

[Opinion over the authorship of this painting was long divided after Hamann rejected the attribution to Rembrandt in 1948 and suggested Nicolaes Maes as its possible maker.1 Since Bauch2 and Gerson3 in 1966 and 1968, respectively, followed Hamann and omitted the Holy Family at night from their catalogues of Rembrandt’s oeuvre, it has received scant attention in the art-historical literature: the painting is not included in more recent monographs on Rembrandt by Schwartz and Tümpel, and in his Gemälde der Rembrandtschüler Sumowski catal ogued it as an anonymous work from the school of Rem brandt.4 In 2006 Taco Dibbits gave a detailed account of the vicissitudes endured by this painting and the history of its reception.5 Al though we in no way doubt the painting’s dis attribution, it displays so many Rembrandtesque features that the question of its relationship with autograph work by Rembrandt justifies a separate entry.]
