New York holds 43 works by Rembrandt across 2 institutions, including Metropolitan Museum of Art and Brooklyn Museum.
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.

The Brooklyn Museum is the second-largest art museum in New York, with encyclopaedic collections from ancient Egypt to contemporary art. Less crowded than the Metropolitan and worth the short subway ride from Manhattan.
Planning your visit to New York
New York's major museums are spread across Manhattan — the Metropolitan Museum and Guggenheim are on the Upper East Side (4/5/6 subway), while MoMA is in Midtown and the Whitney is in the Meatpacking District. The Metropolitan suggests a donation rather than charging a fixed fee for New York State residents; out-of-state visitors pay the listed price. Allow a full day for the Met; the other collections are more manageable in a half-day.
