Jan Six is a Dutch art dealer whose ancestor, also called Jan Six, was painted by the Dutch Master Rembrandt in the 17th century. So when, in 2016, Jan uncovered a lost painting by Rembrandt, the news shook the art world. But, at the time, Jan was hiding another astonishing find… he told Outlook’s Emily Webb his story.

Nelson Molina is another collector of prized objects, although he’s not finding them in auction houses and old country houses. While working for New York City’s Department of Sanitation he started collecting items he found in people’s rubbish and then made a collection of his most prized pieces - he now has over 45,000 items. Outlook’s Will Coley went to meet him in 2016.
