Aristotle with a Bust of Homer

Rembrandt · The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The philosopher Aristotle rests his hand on a bust of the poet Homer, wearing a gold chain said to be a gift from his pupil Alexander the Great. When the Met bought it in 1961, it set a world record for the price of a painting.
