The Storm on the Sea of Galilee by Rembrandt, first coin of the Lost Art Series

“Introducing ‘The Storm on the Sea of Galilee’ by Rembrandt, a cornerstone of the Lost Art Series. This numismatic masterpiece is not just a collector’s item but a profound homage to one of the most poignant narratives in the history of art—the mysterious disappearance of Rembrandt’s only seascape painting.

The reverse features a colorized depiction of the tempestuous sea from Rembrandt’s painting. This dynamic portrayal captures the chaos of the storm with crashing waves and foreboding clouds, encapsulating the dramatic intensity that Rembrandt so masterfully composed. The scene is not only a visual spectacle but also serves as a reminder of the painting’s dramatic fate. Stolen in 1990 from the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston, the original painting has been lost to the public eye ever since, its whereabouts a lingering mystery that adds to the mystique and appeal of this coin.

On the obverse, the coin presents a detailed self-portrait of Rembrandt, symbolizing his introspective genius and the timeless allure of his artistic expression. This side celebrates the artist’s legacy, further enriched by the enigmatic story of the painting’s disappearance.
