It is not known what inspired Rembrandt in 1635 to create what came to be known as the four �Oriental Heads,� four etched copies of tronies by Jan Lievens.� A curiously worded inscription along the upper edge reading �Rembrandt geretuckeert� (�retouched by Rembrandt�) has led some scholars to attribute these plates to the artist's students, but the majority now accept them as the work of Rembrandt himself.
