 If you have ever studied Rembrandt you probably would come to the realization that his best paintings were produced in the last five years of his life. They are sprawling, intense, and filled with spiritual colors-rusts and golds, flamelike hues, and a darkness that tears at your heartstrings. The best of these works and most likely the finest biblical painting in the world is The Return of the Prodigal Son , finished less than a year before he died. This painting is charged with emotion, a father's gesture of forgiveness and tenderness for a lost son who has returned home.
