Helsinki's Sinebrychoff Art Museum holds 1 work by Rembrandt (1606–1669) — the city's entire known holding of this artist in a single institution.
Rembrandt's handling of light and shadow is the great achievement of Northern European painting, and it is above all a physical achievement — thick impasto highlights built up from layers of glaze, darkness that seems to breathe. Standing in front of a major Rembrandt self-portrait is one of the defining experiences of looking at Western art.

Planning your visit to Helsinki
Helsinki's art institutions are compact and walkable — the Ateneum (national art museum) and Kiasma (contemporary art) are both near the central railway station. Entry is free for under-18s at most state museums. The Amos Rex with its striking underground galleries is also worth a visit.
