In 1634 the up-and-coming painting talent Rembrandt wed the love of his life in Friesland: Saskia Uylenburgh, the daughter of a councillor at the Court of Friesland. The story of their marriage is also that of seventeen-century society marriages in general, from courtship to drawing up a will.

How did such a stylish wedding come about, and how did life proceed afterwards, when love and suffering were shared?
