''The Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Deijman'' (alternative spelling Deyman) is a 1656, fragmentary painting by Rembrandt, now in Amsterdam Museum. It is a group portrait showing a brain dissection by Dr Jan Deijman (1619-1666). Much of the canvas was destroyed in a fire in 1723 and the painting was subsequently recut to its present dimensions, though a preparatory sketch shows the full group. The painting shows Dr. Deijman performing a brain dissection on the cadaver of an executed criminal, the Flemish tailor Joris "Black Jack" Fonteijn (1633/34-1656). Dr. Deijman's assistant, the surgeon Gijsbert Calkoen (1621-1664), is seen on the left, holding the top of the dead man's skull. The perspective of the corpse is depicted with exaggerated foreshortening to give the viewer a sense of standing in front of the dissection table, similar to the foreshortening in Mantegna's ''Lamentation of Christ'', which Rembrandt would have been familiar with through prints. ==See also== *''The Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Nicolaes Tulp'' *''Lamentation of Christ (Mantegna)'' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Deijman」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
