A precious moment of full attention. The very moment you find something very special in your archival research or in your academic reading is pure gold, as curious do know. Awe can be found everywhere as the man in this 1627 oil painting by Rembrandt van Rijn demonstrates.

@dbellingradt That is a very strange painting. I like it, but I wonder whether Rembrandt actually painted it.
