Rembrandt Remains Still Not Found

LEIDEN, Netherlands —  Researchers hoping to unearth Rembrandt’s remains said Friday they have given up hope of finding the grave of the painter, who died in such poverty that he could not afford a tomb.

Prof. Harmen Baeukers, who is leading the effort to find the grave of the Dutch Old Master, said the excavation of a tomb in which Rembrandt’s son, Titus, was buried had yielded no clues as to the whereabouts of the painter’s last resting place.
