In the movie behind his bed is an abstract painting. I'm trying to find out who did it or where I can find a decent photo of it. Can anyone help?

It has an appearance of a Rembrandt but I cannot confirm.  Does anyone have an idea?

My mom has this painting and has had it since the 70's. I saw the same painting in the background of the original "Footloose". It is in the scene where the family runs into the room of the girls after vandals throw a brick through the window. Just curious about the painting. Never seen it before until I watched the movie for like the 20th time. lol I am looking for information about a painting of a young girl with long red hair.
