Our final to celebrate 's new exhibition is Jan Steen's 'The Wrath of Ahasuerus' from about 1671-73.

The Dutch Golden Age artist created engaging and humorous scenes, often of peasant life, as well as Old Testament scenes like this one.

Our second choice is... our 'Sheet of Studies' by Rembrandt, from the mid-1630s.

Many of his sets of studies appear to have been cut into pieces at some stage: this is the most complete set on a single sheet to survive.
