From his early days as a page in a countess's castle, where he honed his linguistic skills and artistic inclinations, to his travels across Europe, the book charts Rubens' artistic journey. It highlights his time in Italy, his role as a court painter, and his relationships with influential figures such as Marie de'Medici and the Archduchesse Isabella. The book further explores his significant commissions, including altarpieces and tapestry designs, while also examining his personal life, including his marriage to Isabella Brandt and the profound grief he experienced upon her death. Through vivid descriptions and reproductions of his works, the biography paints a portrait of Rubens as both a prolific artist and a man deeply affected by the events of his time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUsed (acceptable, see images, some yellowing and ex library)\u003cbr\u003eHardcover\u003cbr\u003eISBN ","brand":"Blue Pigeon Goods","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46226633654422,"sku":"jayfifteen_AHKUYXLKS4JA","price":39.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0680\/5189\/4422\/files\/8872_ff3a23a7-89fc-4298-b9ce-bc9fc4ff2c97.jpg?v=1770280246","url":"https:\/\/bluepigeongoods.com\/products\/rubens-by-elizabeth-ripley","provider":"Blue Pigeon Goods Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
