Abstract

"One of the most versatile and influential artists of northern Europe in the seventeenth century, Peter Paul Rubens (1577-1640) had a remarkable ability to bring his paintings intensely and joyfully alive. He was a successful businessman who ran an efficient studio to meet the great demand for his work, and was also a classical scholar, an enthusiastic collector of art and antiquities, and a respected diplomat on intimate terms with European royalty. Contemporaries admired his extraordinary artistic versatility. His paintings range from altarpieces, portraits and landscapes to elaborate cycles of myths and allegories; he also designed tapestries, book illustrations and even his own home." "In this study, Kristin Lohse Belkin shows that there is more to Rubens than the Rubenesque nude. She explores his techniques and workshop practices, the role of women in his life and art, and his engagement with contemporary issues of church and state. She unravels the allegorical and iconographic content of key works, situating them within their original settings and investigating their functions. Drawing on his extensive correspondence, she traces his involvement in the events of his time and charts his relationship with members of his circle."--Jacket.

Abstract

Rubens' work radiates energy and depicts a vertiginous perception of the pleasures of life. The bright colours and limitless imagination glorify the world in all its splendour.Rubens has a profound influence on subsequent painters: his heroic ideals are reflected in Antoine Watteu's chivalric scenes and the hunting scenes in Eugène Delacroix's works; his laudable paintings of the beauty of the female form evoke Auguste Renoir's nudes.

Abstract

Universally celebrated for his rosy and concupiscent nudes, Peter Paul Rubens (1577-1640) was an artist whose first concern was sensuality in all its forms. This Baroque master devoted himself to a lifelong celebration of the joys and wonders of the physical realm. He felt that the human body was as lovely and natural as the many natural landscapes he painted as a young man. In a lushly illustrated text, María Varshavskaya and Xenia Yegorova explore the master at work, bringing a unique focus to Ruben's life and work

Abstract

Figuring Faith and Female Power in the Art of Rubens argues that the Baroque painter, propagandist, and diplomat, Peter Paul Rubens, was not only aware of rapidly shifting religious and cultural attitudes toward women, but actively engaged in shaping them. Today, Rubens's paintings continue to be used -- and abused -- to prescribe and proscribe certain forms of femininity. Repositioning some of the artist's best-known works within seventeenth-century Catholic theology and female court culture, this book provides a feminist corrective to a body of art historical scholarship in which studies of gender and religion are often mutually exclusive. Moving chronologically through Rubens's lengthy career, the author shows that, in relation to the powerful women in his life, Rubens figured the female form as a transhistorical carrier of meaning whose devotional and rhetorical efficacy was heightened rather than diminished by notions of female difference and particularity.
