Nationaliteit/school Zuid-Nederlands Geboren Siegen 1577-06-28 Siegen is the most likely place of birth, given his birth date of 28-06-1577 (Van de Velde/Valkeneers 2013). His mother is documented in Siegen on 14-06-1577. Antwerp has also been proposed as his place of birth, on the account that he is documented as 'poorter' of Antwerp in 1618 (Tijs 2004). Overleden Antwerpen 1640-05-30 Familierelaties in dit veld wordt een familierelatie met één of meer andere kunstenaars vermeld. Rubens married Isabella Brant (1591-15 July 1626) on 3 October 1609. Together they had two sons, Albert and Nicolaes, and a daughter Clara; on 16 November 1630 he married for the second time with 16-year old Hélène Fourment (1614–1673), with whom he had further children, five of whom were still alive at the time of his death, among which were Clara Eugenia, Elisabeth, Constance- Albertina and Peter Paul.

Ook relevante studiereizen worden hier vermeld. Siegen Rubens' father Jan became secretary to Anna of Saxony, the second wife of William prince of Orange in 1570, for which reason the family moved from Cologne to Siegen in 1570. Here Rubens was born on 27 June 1577; Hauspie 2018, p. 12-15 Keulen 1578 - 1587 Hauspie 2018, p. 16-23 Antwerpen 1590 - 1600-03-09 The Rubens family returned to Antwerp in 1590 after the death of father Jan in 1578. Here Rubens entered the studio of Tobias Verhaecht (a distant relative of Rubens' mother). After studying there for a year, he went over to Adam van Noort for a longer period. Finally he ended his studies under Otto van Veen. In 1598 finally, Rubens was registered as Master in the Guild of Saint Luke (Rombouts/Van Lerius 1872/1961, vol. 1, p. 401). Hauspie 2018, p. 24-30; Morselli 2018B, p. 85ff Venetië 1600-07 Rubens probably traveled south, together with his friend Deodaat van den Berg/Deodata del Monte, by way of the Rhine, Strassburg, Basel and Schaffhausen, over the Alps and probably entered Italy by way of the Gotthardt Pass: although this is not absolutely certain, it is certain that he was in Venice in July 1600: here he was engaged as court painter for the Gonzaga in Mantua; Morselli 2018B, p. 87 Mantua 1600-07 - 1608-05-05 Rubens left on 9 May 1600 for Italy, where he first entered the service of Duke Vincenzo Gonzaga in Mantua. See Hauspie 2018, p. 31-48 Florence 1602 - 1603 c. 1602-1603 (Gregori et al. 1983); Morselli 2018B, p. 88-89 Rome 1602 - 1603 first stay in Rome: Hauspie 2018, p. 49-50 Verona 1602 Visit to his brother Philip (Hauspie 2018, p. 52) Mantua 1603 working on 'the Gonzaga Family adoring the Trinity' Alicante 1603-04-22 arrived at the port; off to Valladolid (Vergara 1999, p. 7-8) Valladolid 1603-05-13 - 1603 Rubens traveled in the company of Gonzaga's Ambassy to the Spanish court of Philip III, where he made some prestigious paintings; most important commission from this time was the 'Equestrian portrait of the Duke of Lerma' (Vergara 1999, p. 7- 8); Hauspie 2018, p. 53-59 Rome 1603 - 1606 2nd stay; Hauspie 2018, p. 59: commission for the Santa Maria in Vallicella Mantua 1607-06 Hauspie 2018, p. 80 Genua 1606 - 1607 Stoesser-Johnston 2018, p. 33; Hauspie 2018, p. 80-65 Rome 1607-08 3rd stay; Hauspie 2018, p. 67-69: finishing the altar of the Chiesa Nuova Antwerpen 1608 - 1611 Rubens rushed back to Antwerp when he heard that his mother Maria Pypelinckx was in extremis. He was too late however, as she died on 19 October 1608 (Vermeylen 2004). On 23 July 1609 the Archdukes Isabella and Albrecht appointed Rubens as offical Court Painter with his seat in Antwerp. On 23 September 1609 Rubens was exempt from registering his pupils in the 'Liggeren' of the Guild of Saint Luke (Rombouts/Van Lerius 1872. vol.1, p. 558, note 1). On 3 October 1609 Rubens married Isabella Brant, daughter of Jan Brant, City Clerk (Stadsgriffier) of Antwerp. In 1610/11 Rubens painted the 'Raising of the Cross' for Saint Walburgis Church (the French shut it down in 1798, after which the ruins were demolished eventually in 1816. The art work was first transferred to Paris, and, after the recuperation in 1815 distributed over divers churches and museums. The 'Raising of the Cross' was transferred to the Cathedral of Our Lady, where it now still is). On 21 March 1611 his daughter Clara Serena was baptized in Saint Andrew's Church. in 1611/12 Rubens painted the central part of 'the Descent from the Cross' in the Cathedral of Our Lady. Haarlem 1612 Rubens made a trip through Holland with Jan Brueghel I and Hendrik van Balen I, visiting many scholars, humanists and colleagues, like Hendrick Goltzius in Haarlem. He was especially on the look-out for capable engravers to make prints after his compositions. Antwerpen 1614 In 1614 Rubens painted the two wings for 'the Descent from the Cross' in the Cathedral of Our Lady. On 5 June 1614 his son Albert was baptized, with archduke Albrecht as God-father. Antwerpen 1615 - 1622 In 1615 Rubens moved into his house on the Wapper (the present-day Rubens House). On 23 March 1618 his son Nicolaes was baptized, with Marchese Nicolo Pallavicini from Genoa standing God-father. Together with Anthony van Dyck he painted the altar pieces and the ceilings of the Church of the Jesuits, the present day Church of Carolus Borromeus in Antwerp. In 1622 he designed the sketches and the cartoons for the series with the story of Constantine the Great. Parijs 1622-01-11 - 1622 signed the contract on 26 February in Paris to decorate the Palais du Luxembourg with the Life of Maria de' Medici and Henry IV; Hauspie 2018, p. 118-125 Antwerpen Parijs 1623-05-23 - 1623-06-29 second stay in Paris; Hauspie 2018, p. 125 Antwerpen 1623-10 - 1624 Death of his daughter Clara Serena in October 1623. On 5 June 1624 Rubens was elevated to the peerage by Archduchess Isabella (Archduke Albert having died on 13 July 1621). In 1624 he painted a.o. the 'Adoration of the Wise Men'for Saint Michael's Abbey (now the Royal Museum of Fine Art Antwerp) and the altarpiece for Saint Bavo's Cathedral in Ghendt. On 13 January 1625 Rubens became guardian of the minor children of Jan Brueghel I. Parijs 1625-02-04 - 1625-06-09 third stay in Paris: completion of the Medici-cycle in Paris (Hauspie 2018, p.

[…] [T]he facility with which he invented, the richness of his composition, the luxuriant harmony and brilliancy for Teachers and Students of his colouring, so dazzle the eye, that whilst his works continue before us we cannot help thinking that all his deficiencies are fully supplied.’ Sir Joshua Reynolds, Discourse V, 10 December 1772 Introduction Written by Francesca Herrick During his lifetime, the Flemish master Sir Peter Paul Rubens (1577–1640) For the Learning Department was the most celebrated artist in Europe and could count the English, French © Royal Academy of Arts and Spanish monarchies among his prestigious patrons. Hailed as ‘the prince of painters and painter of princes’, he was also a skilled diplomat, a highly knowledgeable art collector and a canny businessman. Few artists have managed to make such a powerful impact on both their contemporaries and on successive generations, and this exhibition seeks to demonstrate that his Rubens and His Legacy: Van Dyck to Cézanne continued influence has had much to do with the richness of his repertoire.

  • Antwerp in 2 Days | the Rubens House
    Antwerp in 2 days | The Rubens House Rubens was a man of many talents. Besides being the gifted painter we all know, he was also a diplomat, a devoted family man, an art collector and an architect. Where better to begin this immersion in Rubens’s city than the house in which he lived and worked? Rubens as an architect Rubens was talented in many areas of life. Besides being the gifted painter we all know, he was also a diplomat, a devoted family man, an art collector and architect. Where better to begin this immersion in Rubens’s city than the house in which he lived and worked? When Rubens returned from Italy in 1608, at the age of 31, he came back with a case full of sketches and a head full of ideas. He purchased a plot of land with a house near his grandfather’s home (Meir 54) and converted it into his own Palazzetto. Take an hour to visit the Rubens House and to breathe in the atmosphere in the master’s house before setting off to explore his city. Rubens’s palazzetto on the Wapper was not yet complete when the artist was commissioned to work on the Baroque Jesuit church some distance away, at Hendrik Conscienceplein. On your way to Hendrik Conscienceplein, we would suggest you make a brief stop at another church: St James’s Church (St Jacobskerk) in Lange Nieuwstraat. This robust building dooms up rather unexpectedly among the houses, but its interior presents a perfect harmony between Gothic and Baroque: the elegant Middle Ages and the flamboyant style of the 17th century go hand-in-hand here.

  • The Spell of Belgium
    The Spell of Belgium By Isabel Anderson THE SPELL OF BELGIUM CHAPTER I THE NEW POST THE winter which I spent in Belgium proved a unique niche in my experience, for it showed me the daily life and characteristics of a people of an old civilization as I could never have known them from casual meetings in the course of ordinary travel. My husband first heard of his nomination as Minister to Belgium over the telephone. We were at Beverly, which was the summer capital that year, when he was told that his name was on the list sent from Washington. Although he had been talked of for the position, still in a way his appointment came as a surprise, and a very pleasant one, too, for we had been assured that “Little Paris” was an attractive post, and that Belgium was especially interesting to diplomats on account of its being the cockpit of Europe. After receiving this first notification, L. called at the “Summer White House” in Beverly, and later went to Washington for instructions. It was not long before we were on our way to the new post. Through a cousin of my husband’s who had married a Belgian, the Comte de Buisseret, we were able to secure a very nice house in Brussels, the Palais d’Assche. As it was being done over by the owners, I remained in Paris during the autumn, waiting until the work should be finished. My husband, of course, went directly to Brussels, and through his letters I was able to gain some idea of what our life there was to be.

  • The Drawing Ezine
    Drawing Workshops Portrait Drawing Painting for Beginners Workshops Workshops THE DRAWING EZINE How to Draw the Portrait in Conte The visual language of drawing has evolved tremen- dously over the past few centuries. An almost magi- cal trick happens within our cerebrum when we view a flat surface on which marks have been inscribed. Look- ing at a portrait drawing – particularly a master draw- ing of exquisite lines and tones – we immediately see past the markings of chalk and engage in a visual and emotional dialogue. The more masterful the drawing the more we engage it. This, too, is also the brutal reality of portrait drawing. If the threshhold of plausibility, namely, does the draw- ing read accurately, is not met then our work is readily dismissed. Additionally the spirit of a drawing, it’s emo- tional pull, is critically important. I am thinking of the portrait drawings of van Gogh when I say this. Con- versely, a technically accurate rendering alone will not make a drawing a ‘success’. The saccherine works Peter Paul Rubens, Isabella Brant, of William-Adolphe Bougeureau (1825-1905) come to A Portrait Drawing, 1621 mind. © 1998-2013. All rights reserved. William-Adolphe Bouguereau, Vincent van Gogh, Drawing of a Woman Self-Portrait In the late 19th Century Bougeureau was considered the greatest painter of his time – his paintings commanded astounding prices and he was a much sought after guest at high society galas while up on the hill in Montmartre artists such as van Gogh and Modigliani huddled over cold cups of coffee for their sustenance.

  • Rubens Was Artist, Scholar, Diplomat--And a Lover of Life
    RUBENS WAS ARTIST, SCHOLAR, DIPLOMAT--AND A LOVER OF LIFE An exhibit at Boston's Museum of Fine Arts shows that this Flemish genius truly lived in the right place at the right time by Henry Adams Smithsonian, October, 1993 Of all the great European Old Masters, Rubens has always been the most difficult and puzzling for Americans. Thomas Eakins, the famed American portraitist, once wrote that Rubens' paintings should be burned. Somewhat less viciously, Ernest Hemingway made fun of his fleshy nudes—which have given rise to the adjective "Rubenesque"—in a passage of his novel A Farewell to Arms. Here, two lovers attempt to cross from Italy into Switzerland in the guise of connoisseurs of art. While preparing for their assumed role, they engage in the following exchange: "'Do you know anything about art?' "'Rubens,' said Catherine. "'Large and fat,' I said." Part of the difficulty, it is clear, lies in the American temperament. Historically, we have preferred restraint to exuberance, been uncomfortable with nudes, and admired women who are skinny and twiglike rather than abundant and mature. Moreover, we Americans like art to express private, intensely personal messages, albeit sometimes strange ones, whereas Rubens orchestrated grand public statements, supervised a large workshop and absorbed the efforts of teams of helpers into his own expression.
