The Portrait of Isabella Brant by Peter Paul Rubens LadyKflo
-
- Arts
Rubens loved to draw his wife, Isabella Brant. The old Flemish master married her in the early 1600s when he was a young upstart. Peter Paul Rubens was popular and famous for his baroque paintings in his lifetime. The work of Rubens now lives in the collective unconscious as an icon of sensual and lush depictions of dramatic scenes.
He's considered an old master thanks to his classical training, role as Master of his local guild, and impressive body of work. But the definition for "old master" also calls for working independently. Still, artworks completed by an apprentice or factory are often included in collections by old masters. This can be especially true of a Rubens work.
