What is Rembrandt's field of painting?
He was a painter of the Dutch baroque era, also called 'The Golden Age'. He mainly did portraits, religious and mythological subjects.
Besides painting he was a master etcher.
Does Rembrandt have any living descendants?
Quite possibly but I don't know for sure. He had one surviving child with his wife Saskia by the name of Titus who married and had one child born after his death; she unfortunately died childless. He had one illegitimate daughter named Cornelia by his mistress Henrickje Stoffels. Cornerlia later married and gave birth to a boy and a girl which she named after her father and mother. This is where I draw a blank I cannot find any information on their lives so cannot say they lived to adulthood and had children of their own. I would like to think so.

What was discovered when when the nightwatch painting was cleaned?
When the painting was cleaned it was much lighter than in it's original state, no longer fitting the title 'Night Watch' which, by the way, was not titled by Rembrandt.
What was the circumstances of Rembrandt's wife Saskia's death?
tuberculosis
Yes, you might say that is what most art experts of today and the Amsterdam Officials from that time period back then would say and most is still lead to believe today. It was said to be some kind of a malady of a lung disease for sure, and was not really looked at all that closely due to doctor Van Loon's diagnosis he had made from his care of Saskia as her doctor. Van Loon was also a very close friend and mentor of his good artist friend Rembrandt van Rijn. Questions pretty much laid dormant or silent due to Saskia's own will she had made just before she had died, stating no questions of her death or of inheritances should come up or be brought up in the courts unless perhaps Rembrandt should remarry. If he were to remarry, then all would become her son Titus's. If he didn't remarry, then Rembrandt could live off the interest of her dowery until the time that Titus became of age and then the money be split appropriately to the will. This will of her had tied Rembrandt's hands of all his future plans of the use of her money and of marrying his mistress Hendrickje Stoffels.
