Stefano (Lino Capolicchio) arrives in a village of the Valli di Comacchio area where he has been employed to restore a fresco depicting what appears to be the martyring of Saint Sebastian, which has been painted on a rotting wall of the local church by a mysterious, long-dead artist. While temporarily taking up residence in the house that had been previously owned by the two sisters of the deceased painter, Stefano begins a romance with a new, beautiful schoolteacher, Francesca (Francesca Marciano), meanwhile learning from various townspeople that the painter had been a madman who had derived his art from real life. Specifically, Stefano learns that the artist — assisted by his two equally-insane sisters — had been a killer who brutally tortured people through to death as inspiration for his horrific paintings — a practice that had likely been used for the very painting he is in process of restoring. As Stefano is discouraged for his task throughout the town, some of the villagers are brutally killed — including his employer — and he comes to suspect that their murderer is trying to deter him from discovering the full truth behind the artist and his ominous legacy within the sleepy community.

Actors Claude Renoir, Henri-Georges Clouzot
Cherchant à percer le mystère de la création, le cinéaste se dit : «Pour savoir ce qui se passe dans la tête d'un peintre, il suffit de suivre sa main». Un habile stratagème lui permet de réaliser son projet insensé : par transparence, chaque trait tracé par la main du célèbre artiste apparaît dans l'espace. Mais l'exécution, par Pablo Picasso, de dessins et de tableaux, ne fait que gonfler davantage le mystère qui plane autour de lui : en effet, chacun des traits qu'il effectue étonne et déconcerte. Des toreros blessés et des nus sont ainsi créés, comme par magie, fruits d'un travail acharné qui connaît parfois quelques échecs.

Le film, comme le titre l'indique, est une biographie du peintre hollandais du XVII siècle, qualifié de « plus grand peintre de tous les temps » dans le texte qui défile à l'écran en guise de préambule. Rembrandt, au moment où l'histoire commence, est un peintre adulé, sollicité par les plus riches, mais dont le plus grand plaisir consiste à réaliser des portraits de son épouse Saskia. Celle-ci, cependant, tombe brusquement malade et meurt, laissant le peintre désemparé. Plutôt que d'assister aux funérailles de sa femme, il tâche de peindre d'elle au moins un dernier portrait, tant que son image ne s'est pas encore tout à fait éteinte dans son souvenir ; à partir de cet événement tragique, la vie du peintre, progressivement, va se désagréger…
