Rembrandt's Comet

By Gordon Kurby

In the spring of 2013, the Seattle Art Museum hosted an exhibit titled, "Rembrandt, Van Dyck, Gainsborough: Treasures of Kenwood House, London." A close friend convinced Gordon Kurby to go on this cultural outing because Downton Abbey, a popular PBS show Gordon had enjoyed, was partially filmed at Kenwood House.

The large self-portrait of Rembrandt that greeted every exhibit attendee had large circles painted into its background. A museum docent explained that after almost four centuries, the mystery of Rembradnt's circles still remained unsolved.

After the exhibit, three friends, two women and a man all post fifty years old, could not resist this curious challenge. Collaborating from West Coast to East Coast, they openly shared their ideas about the images in the painting. Every discovery led to more amazing ones, provoking questions no one had asked before.

What we bring you now is this extraordinary communication.
