This is a wonderful etching. I found a lot more Rembrandt etchings here. If you are interested in purchasing an etching from an Old Master like Rembrandt, I suggest making sure you get a "lifetime impression", which means it was made during the artist's lifetime. They are far more valuable.

I remember seeing that first etching in a history book discussing how Gin became known as "Mother's Ruin." I wasn't a parent at the time and didn't appreciate the babywearing. Thanks for revisiting a great picture

Hi, i'm a baywearing enthusiast from Portugal and a friend sent me a link to your blog. I didn't know many of the images you posted here - thank you for sharing! I also collect babywearing images and often post them on my weblog - see the baby slings category.
