Titus van Rijn (22 September 1641 – 4 September 1668) was one of two children of Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn who survived to adulthood, and the only such one from his wife Saskia van Uylenburgh (out of four) — the other being Cornelia, from his relationship with Hendrickje Stoffels. He is known as a model in his father's paintings and studies, as an art-dealer but also because of a legal case. Titus and Rembrandt were Saskia's only heirs.[1][2]
