To mark the 350th anniversary of Rembrandt\u2019s death a new exhibition has been launched at Kenwood, the London home of the Dutch artist\u2019s most famous painting, Self-portrait with Two Circles. The exhibition, called #nofilter, sees the painting re-presented alongside a new digital artwork which will be comprised of \u2018selfies\u2019 taken by visitors.\n\nWe meet senior curator Wendy Monkhouse to find out more about the enduring appeal of the painting, how it came to be at Kenwood and what visitors can expect during a visit to see it and the rest of Kenwood\u2019s remarkable collection of art today.\n\nFor more information or to plan a visit, go to https://www.english-heritage.org.uk/visit/places/kenwood/\nLearn more about your ad choices.
