A Man Making Water (1630)
The State Bed (1646) Note: The woman in the image has three arms. It is a mystery as to why?
Rembrandt was a well known perfectionist but it is unknown whether he intended the scene to be a threesome with a hidden figure of if he changed the details or simple made a mistake.

Woman Sitting Half Dressed Besides a Stove (1658)
Joseph and Potiphar's Wife (1634) which depicts a story from the Bible quoted below.
"And it came to pass about this time, that Joseph went into the house to do his business; and there was none of the men of the house there within. And she caught him by his garment, saying, Lie with me: and he left his garment in her hand, and fled, and got him out" - (Genesis 39 : 11–12)
