This character study joins the painter at the height of his fame in 1642, when his adored wife suddenly dies and his work takes a dark, sardonic turn that offends his patrons. By 1656, he is bankrupt but consoles himself with the company of pretty maid Hendrickje, whom he's unable to marry. Their relationship brings ostracism but also some measure of happiness. The final scenes find him in his last year, 1669, physically enfeebled but his spirit undimmed. 译文(2): 这个人物研究加入了画家在1642年的鼎盛时期，当时他深爱的妻子突然去世，他的作品转向黑暗，讽刺，冒犯了他的赞助人。到了1656年，他破产了，但是和美丽的女仆亨德里克娅在一起安慰自己，他没能和她结婚。他们的关系带来了排斥，但也有幸福的衡量标准。最后的场景发现他在他的最后一年，1669年，身体衰弱，但他的精神没有减弱。
