Can't really say for sure, but I believe it was between 1646 and 1649, when Rembrandt was still painting portrait of clients in his house on the Breestraat, quit a few years before he lost his house in bankruptcy court. Rembrandt loved that monkey, including his son Titus and his mistress Hendrickje also like that monkey. Rembrandt had included that monkey in at least four painting that I know of personally. One of them was mentioned by Holbreaken, a Rembrandt historian who stated it was a known fact Rembrandt painted his dead monkey into a unfinished work of a family portrait. An earlier biographers, Filippo Baldinucci, who based his writings on the testimony of one of Rembrandt's pupils also said something to this effect. It was refused by of the head of the house hold who jump around the painting before Rembrandt was able to cover it up. Rembrandt refused to remove it because of liking its effect, and then proceeded to threw the family out of his house, and was said to have left the painting unfinished.
