Visitors to Amsterdam's Rembrandt House Museum can now get a permanent reminder of the artist's work after a group of tattooists set up a studio there.

The Poor Man's Rembrandt Project opened yesterday offering "original Rembrandt" tattoos starting at $111 and going up to a whole back piece made up of images from the Dutch master.

Tattooist Henk Schiffmacher said it was "an honor" to work in the museum where Rembrandt lived and worked, adding: "An old tattoo artist once called tattoos 'The Poor Man's Rembrandt': an artwork that is more affordable than a painting by the old master, but no less carefully selected and executed."

The tattoo studio stays open to November 7.

Tributes have been paid to Dutch art historian and museum director Rudi Fuchs who has died aged 84.

Rein Wolfs, the director of Amsterdam's Stedelijk Museum, said Fuchs, who held the same job between 1993 and 2003, was "one of the most influential museum directors and curators on the international stage over the last fifty years".

He said: "Through his acquisitions, presentations, and publications, Rudi made a significant contribution to the understanding of art; everything he did served as an encouragement to really look.”

Fuchs was also director of the Van Abbemuseum in Eindhoven and directed the 1982 Documenta arts exhibition in Kassel, Germany.
