Rembrandt's 1642 work, now in the collection of the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam. Its official title is "Captain Frans. Banning Coq's Municipal Guard." It is a group portrait of the Amsterdam Musketeers' Guild. It depicts Captain Coq giving the order to depart to his lieutenant. Rather than using the parallel technique of the usual group portraits, it captures the troupe in action. Although it is commonly called the "Night Watch," after the painting was cleaned in 1946, the painting became brighter and it became clear that it was a daytime scene. A total of 31 people are depicted, of which 16 to 18 people paid him 100 guilders each to commission the painting.
