Rubens had a profound impact on the visual culture of his age. He was admired not only as a painter but for his learning : the knowledge of classical literature and imagery which he exploited so brilliantly in arresting and powerful pictures. Rubens was particularly drawn to allegory : the use of personified figures, sometimes in combination with the gods of the ancient pantheon and certain humans (historical individuals), to express concepts, ideals and even political messages. A contemporary praised him for using in his allegorical compositions "only symbols of Antiquity, thus popularising the coins and other monuments of the ancient world", but Rubens adapted ancient symbolism to new effect, with the aim of creating pictures whose essential meaning would be the more accessible for it. This volume presents works that Ludwig Burchard (1886-1960) planned to include in his catalogue raisonné under the heading "Allegories and subjects from literature". It features some of the artist's most celebrated paintings, as well as some lesser-known or recently discovered items. The themes range from nature's abundance to the dangers of excess, from human hove to political expediency, triumph and the celebration of religion. It includes masterpieces as diverse in tone as the "Shivering Venus" (Antwerp, Koninklijk Museum voor Schone Kunsten) and the "Horrors of war" (Florence, Palazzo Pitti), memorably described by a great historian as "the immortal and unforgettable frontispiece to the Thirty Years' War". As well as an introduction to the subject, the catalogue provides extensive analyses of each work, revealing Rubens's literary and visual references. The circumstances surrounding the making and display of every item are investigated and considered alongside the artist's own creative process, since knowledge of the intended context and the early viewing conditions of Rubens's works is so important to the understanding of their significance. Thus particular attention is paid to provenance, not only for the works themselves, but for the copies made after them.

Gateways to the Book investigates the complex image-text relationships between frontispieces and illustrated title pages with the following texts in European books published between 1500 and 1800. Although interest in this broad field of research has increased in the past decades, many varieties of title pages, many printers and books remain as yet unstudied. The fifteen essays collected in this volume tackle this field from a great variety of academic approaches asking how the images can be interpreted, how the texts and contexts shape their interpretation and how they in turn shape the understanding of the text.

Rubens- Kreuzigung Petri hängt bis heute am Ort ihrer ersten Bestimmung, in der Pfarrkirche St. Peter in Köln. Die Kirche der Jesuiten ist zugleich Kunststation Sankt Peter Köln, deren Ursprünge in der Ankunft der Kreuzigung Petri liegen. Aus der Stiftung des Kölner Kaufmanns Eberhard III. Jabach und seiner Frau Anna Reuter schuf der Antwerpener Maler am Ende seines Lebens dieses letzte, sehr persönliche Bild für die Pfarrkirche seiner Kindheit und die Grabkirche seines Vaters. Bis heute wird die Kreuzigung Petri am Ort ihrer Bestimmung präsentiert. Anlass für die intensive, interdisziplinäre Beschäftigung mit diesem in jeder Hinsicht herausragenden Werk war eine Zustandsüberprüfung 2018, die zu den aktuellen Untersuchungen und der Restaurierung führte. Erstmals wird die Kreuzigung Petri von Peter Paul Rubens mit einer monografischen Studie gewürdigt, die die Erkenntnisse aus Geschichte, Ikonografie, kunsthistorischem Kontext und Werktechnik in deutscher und englischer Sprache zusammenfasst.
