Rembrandt's weapons

I think Lew came most in the neighbourhood with his explanation.

Rembrandt was often found in the harbour where the ships came with the crew from far journeys. Especially the VOC from Indonesia. It was from those sailors Rembrandt collected his items.

And those items Rembrandt used in his paintings. So it has nothing to do with his imagination. On the other hand we can say it has everything to do with his imagination.
