Aug. 08, 1969 - Rembrandt portrait for sale.: A superb painting by Rembrandt, believed to portray the artist's father, is to be sold at Christies on November 28th. X-rays have revealed another Rembrandt face beneath the surface - which makes the painting even more valuable. The painting, which could fetch £500, 000, is being sold by Sir Brian Mountain, chairman of Eagles Star Insurance. It was bought by his father in 1938, again at Christie's, for 7, 000 guineas. Photo shows the portrait by Rembrandt which is to be sold at Christies in November
