 Rembrandt’s portrait “The Jewish Bride “captures a married couple profoundly in love. Their gestures display the utmost admiration for each other.   Placing his hand on his wife’s heart expresses how truly he loves her.  He is intrigued by her beauty.  However, he is content with her beautiful soul.  Given in return, she caresses his hand softly.   As she looks to a distance, she is aware beauty fades.  Nonetheless, his arm around her reassures her of their everlasting love.
