NAMES AND PLACES 200 PLATES 210 PORTRAITS I FOREWORD Rubens painted a large number of portraits, and more of them have survived than might at firSt be supposed. It was thus clear from the outset that Part XIX would have to consist of more than one volume. After considering the available material we reached the conclusion that it would have to be divided into three seftions. Professor Huemer’s Portraits I deals with the portraits painted by Rubens in foreign countries; Portraits II, on which Dr. Hans Vlieghe is now working, will cover those painted in the Southern Netherlands, while Portraits IU will comprise those executed after existing prototypes. We are well aware that other classifications were theoretically possible, but account had to be taken o f certain circumstances. A t the time when the Centrum approached Professor Huemer she was already well ahead with her research con cerning Rubens as a portrait-painter to foreign courts (Mantua, Genoa, Paris, Madrid and London) , and to enable us to work out a rational arrangement of the material she was good enough to extend the scope of her work to include other portraits painted by Rubens in foreign countries. A ll portraits painted by Rubens outside the Southern Netherlands are thus to be found in the Catalogue of the present volume. The essays preceding the Catalogue, however, are confined to problems concerning the court portraits. As with previous volumes, the author of Portraits I has been assisted by the research Staff of the Centrum, and particularly by Dr. Hans Vlieghe and Mr. Paul Huvenne. The assistance relates solely to matters o f faft; as far as inter pretation is concerned, exclusive responsibility naturally reSts with the author. F.
