- Meissonier had shown 'Rembrandt in his studio' at the French Gallery in London in 1860 (no.170). Gérôme's painting, from 1860, was first exhibited at the Paris Salon in 1861 (no.1251) as 'Rembrandt faisant mordre une planche à l’eau-forte' and is untraced (Ackerman 124). Goupil published an etching after the work by Paul Rajon in 1869 which was still available in 1909. The etching was exhibited at 'L’Exposition Nationale de L'Eau-Forte Moderne' at the École des Beaux-Arts, Paris in 1896 (no.738) as 'Rembrandt gravant dans son atelier, d’après Gérôme' (See 'Gérôme and Goupil: Art and enterprise', 2000, p.152).
