He is also renowned as a man of immense erudition. indecd, his rcputation is such that it is taken for granted that his grcat lcarning informed ail aspects of his art in a fundmllcntal way. ln accordance wilh this kind of thinking, currcnt scholarship on Rubens accepts, us a matte" of course, that the artist, whilst creating his painted works, followed the dictates of a colour theory, as wc wouId know it today. In fact, on the basis ofcircumslantiul evidence, it has been accepted that Rubens invented a colour theory that may be sccn as innovative for his time. This thesis assesses the evidence which has led researchers to formulate such a • conclusion. As a consequence, it investigates the circumstances of Rubens assocmtion with François de Aguilon during the final stages ofthe latter's publication of his book on opties, the OpticorulIl lilJri sex .... As weil, the artist's correspondence with his friend, Nicolas Fabri de Peircsc, which contains allusions to an autograph manuscript purported to contain Rubens' thoughts on colour, is re-examined. Indeed, this very correspondcncc revcals Ihat Rubens did not consider himself particularly knowledgcable about the theorclical aspects of colour. On the basis ofa thorough review of these existing documents; an investigation into relevant biographieal circumstances; and an examination of the artist's technique, it is herc proposed that Rubens did not consciously apply theorctical principles to his craft, but rather, that any ofthe discernable clements ofwhat is considered to he modem colour theory are in the paintings only because the demands ofthe painter's cran • serendipitously parallel art historians' theorctical hindsight. iv Résumé • Le génie créateur de Pierre Paul (Petrus Paulus) Rubens tel qu'il est exprimé avec une maîtrise achevée dans ses peintures, n'est que l'un des nombreux éléments qui ont contribué à établir sa renommée. Il est aussi reconnu comme un homme d'une grande érudition. En effet, sa réputation est telle qu'il est pris pour acquis que son savoir a informé tous les aspects de son art d'une façon ~ondamentale. En concordance avec cette pensée, les spécialistes sur Rubens présument que l'artiste suivait les règles d'une théorie des couleurs dans la création de ses oeuvres, laquelle serait identique aux théories actuelles des couleurs, telle que nous la connaîtrions aujourd'hui. Toutefois, certains indices circonstanciels ont plutôt permis d'admettre que Rubens avait inventé une théorie des couleurs jugée novatrice à l'époque.

  • 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.

  • Valuing Congestion Costs in Museums
    Valuing congestion costs in small museums: the case of the Rubenshuis Museum in Antwerp Juliana Salazar Borda Master Cultural Economics & Cultural Entrepreneurship Faculteit der Historische en Kunstwetenschappen Erasmus Universiteit Rotterdam [email protected] Supervisor: Dr. F.R.R. Vermeylen Second Reader: Dr. A. Klamer 2007 Summary Within the methodological framework of Contingent Valuation (CV), the purpose of this research was to find in the Rubenshuis Museum the ‘congestion cost’ or the amount visitors are willing to pay in order to avoid too many people inside. A number of 200 site interviews with museum visitors, either entering or leaving the museum, were made. The analysis of the results showed a strong tendency of visitors to prefer not congested situations. However, their WTP more for the ticket was low (€1.33 in average). It was also found that if visitors were women, were older, were better educated and had a bad experience at the museum, the WTP went up. In addition, those visitors who were in their way out of the museum showed a higher WTP than those ones who were in their way in. Other options to diminish congestion were also asked to visitors. Extra morning and night opening hours were the most popular ones among the sample, which is an alert to the museum to start thinking in improving its services. The Rubenshuis Museum is a remarkable example of how congestion can be handled in order to have a better experience. That was reflected in the answers visitors gave about congestion. In general, even if the museum had a lot of attendance, people were very pleased with the experience and they were amply capable to enjoy the collection.

  • Antwerp in 3 Days | the Rubens House
    Antwerp in 3 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 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. The St Carolus Borromeus Church at Hendrik Conscienceplein is the epitome of Italian grandeur. With his knowledge of Italian architecture, Rubens undoubtedly contributed ideas for the façade, but his greatest achievements here are to be seen in the interior. Rubens designed the richly decorated chapel and its impressive marble high altar. Sadly, all that remains of the master’s 39 ceiling paintings are the sketches that are preserved in the church. The paintings themselves perished in a huge fire in 1718. The high altar merits particular attention: behind the enormous painting – it measures 4.0 x 5.35 metres – other works are concealed.

Vereniging van Antwerpse Bibliofielen, Antwerpen 2000-2001 Zie voor verantwoording: https://www.dbnl.org/tekst/_gul005200001_01/colofon.php Let op: werken die korter dan 140 jaar geleden verschenen zijn, kunnen auteursrechtelijk beschermd zijn. i.s.m. 7 [De Gulden Passer 2000-2001] Woord vooraf Ruim een halve eeuw geleden begon de bibliograaf Prosper Arents aan de realisatie van zijn vermetel plan om de bibliotheek van Pieter Pauwel Rubens virtueel te reconstrueren. In 1961 publiceerde hij in Noordgouw een bondig maar nog steeds lezenswaardig verslag over de stand, op dat ogenblik, van zijn werkzaamheden onder de titel De bibliotheek van Pieter Pauwel Rubens. Toen hij in 1984 op hoge leeftijd overleed, had hij vele honderden titels achterhaald, onderzocht en bibliografisch beschreven. Persklaar kon men zijn notities echter allerminst noemen, iets wat hij overigens zelf goed besefte. In 1994 slaagden Alfons Thijs en Ludo Simons erin onderzoeksgelden van de Universiteit Antwerpen / UFSIA ter beschikking te krijgen om Arents' gegevens electronisch te laten verwerken. Lia Baudouin, classica van vorming, die deze moeilijke en omvangrijke taak op zich nam, beperkte zich niet tot het invoeren van de titels, maar heeft ook bijkomende exemplaren opgespoord, Arents' bibliografische verwijzingen nagekeken en aangevuld en de uitgegeven correspondentie van P.P. Rubens opnieuw gescreend inzake lectuurgegevens. Een informele werkgroep, bestaande uit Arnout Balis, Frans Baudouin, Jacques de Bie, Pierre Delsaerdt, Marcus de Schepper, Ludo Simons en Alfons Thijs, begeleidde L. Baudouin bij haar ‘monnikenwerk’. Na het verstrijken van het mandaat van de onderzoekster bleef toch nog heel wat werk te verrichten om het geheel persklaar te maken.

The Use of Pen and Pencil, or the most Excellent Art of Painting, Lon- don 1658. Preface [s.p.] […] It [sc. painting] is an Art I never professed: These Readings are gathered at my Study, accompa- nied with observations which I met with beyond Seas, and other Notions, pickt up from excellent Arti- zans abroad, and here at home; not without some experience by my own private practise, and alto- gether suiting my Genius. Which gave me occasion to say somewhat to our Painters, with their appro- bation, and desire, to reduce that discourse into a Method, legible to all, and so to render it profitable to the Publick; it being as well delightfull to be read, as usefull for practice, (I speak to Lovers of this Art, not to Masters): Yet, not altogether uncocerning the ordinary Artizan,138 whose former Instructions (hitherto) not reaching unto knowledge, rather hinders his progression from ever being excilent; him- self (perhaps) unacquainted with his own spirit, cannot so readily rise to estimation, though he labour much to make it his profession: For, the invention or election of the means, may be more effectual, than any inforcement or accumulation of endeavours.
