"Nightwatch" is a famous painting by the Dutch artist Rembrandt created in 1642. It depicts a group of militia members preparing for a parade, showcasing their uniforms and weapons. The artwork is known for its dramatic use of light and shadow, which highlights the figures and creates a sense of movement. The painting is housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam and is considered one of the most important works of the Dutch Golden Age. Its full title is "The Night Watch," but it is often referred to as "Nightwatch" due to its dark background and the night-time setting.
