Ruisdael is a modern artist in Rembrandt, but unlike Rembrandt, the landscape he painted is not a human being. Born in Haarlem from 1628 to 1629, he was born as a family of painters and craftsmen. Early painters from his family did not affect him. At the age of 20, he joined the father and uncle's painter's guild. For the next three years, he was an apprentice studying under the master. In other words, he can not sign or sell his work. A few years later, he spent one year as vrije gust or assistant. In 1648, after four years of research, he became a master painter.

Three years, in collaboration with a painter, his father took him to Amsterdam to draw a painter, Peter Lastman, who became an apprentice for him. His parents did this because Rembrandt liked the history of painting and painting, the scenes and images of the Bible, Leiden did not have a painter familiar with religious subjects. "In 1624 at Peter Lastman in Amsterdam, I had a continuing education for six months and probably spent in Jacob Pinas for a while" (Rembrandt's Life - his biography http: // www. screendesign.de/remfus.htm) Rembrandt then returned to Leiden and became an independent painter. Then he moved to Amsterdam and received a high commission to draw a portrait. Rembrandt met Hamburg's Hendrick van Uylenburgh art shop. "Rembrandt made immediate success in Amsterdam" (The New Encyclopedia Britannica 1974) On 22 June 1634, Rembrandt married Sancia van Wuylenburgh of Hendrick van Wuylenbura's cousin.
