Send us a textThis we didn't know until the 1960s: Rembrandt had a relationship with his housekeeper and caretaker of his son Titus. Her name was Geertje Dircx and she was about four years younger than Rembrandt.It was shortly after Saskia's death. Geertje Dircks became Titus' caretaker in 1642. Rembrandt began a relationship with her. Later, this relationship became a thorny path full of legal disputes. That lasted until the mid-1650s. Geertje is listed as one of Rembrandt's creditors. 1.    Idea, research, author, and narration: Bob Wessels:  linkedin.com/in/bobwessels2.    Artwork, editing, production: Jan Wind:  linkedin.com/in/janwind-videomaker3.    Artwork based on the bookcover of ‘Rembrandt’s money’ designed by Teun Okkerse: linkedin.com/in/theun-okkerse-516130b4.
