Thank you for the heads-up ;)

And they master the printing of a label with a foreign address! :o

Thanks. I see the museum ships to the US, so I'll be ordering 2 of each.

Excellent, I ordered  directly from them for the Milkmaid, and may have to again.

Thanks! They could have done better, though.

Rembrandt - I fail to see much resemblance. Wild tuft of hair on the painting, strange cap on the figure.

And a FAT van Gogh? I imagined him differently.

The mini paintings may be the best parts of these sets.

I don't think that's a fat klicky...

Yeah I also think it's just a shadow.

Thanks for sharing Nico! I love that kind of sets, the kind it's impossible to resist. Here, I especially like Van Gogh and both paintings in their frames. I hope it's not a fat klicky too...

Yay!  :woohoo: :cheerlead: :confetti: Thanks Nico!

Rembrandt is indeed a tough one, he doesn't have a distinct "image" in the popular mind, or rather, his distinct image is pretty much his face, which of course can't be done in klicky form. There are no typical clothes he is known by. Compare to the Duerer klicky, from the very distinctive self portrait. Oh well, nice to have anyway and another advance for cultural sets!

Van Gogh easier to do, with his red beard and usually a hat. They picked a nice painting to do. Compare to the Planeta series Van Gogh from not too long ago (not sure about those boots):
