Abstrakt: The article presents information on the shorthand drawing style of artist Rembrandt. The Dutch artist used a rapid, abbreviated technique in drawing to record visual impressions from the world around him ad his own cornucopian imagination, foreshadowing developments in modern art. Information is also given on various exhibitions celebrating the graphic works of the artist. Critics and historians have often resorted to the word shorthand in describing his mature drawing style. The artist's sensitive fusion of pen strokes with brushwork, of linear with tonal accents, is one of the hallmarks of his later mastery of the medium.
