Spectacular drama and realism in Rubens, truly mind-boggling! He never seems to have gotten his due compared to discussions on such Renaissance and Baroque masters as Rembrandt, Michelangelo, Raphael, da Vinci, Velasquez, El Greco, Goya, etc. Until fairly recently, Rubens largely was a blank entity to me, there was a kind of unreality about him, with no one painting of his ever standing out in my mind. This video helped me see that he truly existed as a "real" human being. The fact that his paintings are so over-powering, so vibrant, so chaotically animated in nature(at first glance), could be the reason Rubens has seemed so inaccessible and unknowable to me for so long. This video helped alot, the genius of the painter is both obvious and awesome. I appreciated Mr. Graham-Dixon's enthusiasm and clarity in helping to make this artist come alive as never before. Thank you!
FLEMISH ART - P P RUBENS one of the greatest painters in Flanders - theatrical - color - Italian influence - passion - sensual - force - a flesh and blood human genius
In what ways did Rubens self-fashion himself? In other words, how did he use his art, education, wealth, and collecting practices to construct his desired identity?
This art ist so beautiful . It is very important to expand your art in plenty country or ? Because I want to life of my art . But my art is very in another style.
Manny Artist off his time, used assistants, As his canvasses indeed was huge. Was fortunate to see his work on Jesus decibels. Incredible powerful.4 off them in Munich,Germany. As Curator do story line, Ruben was additional a master off purist Color manipulation. Less, usual sienna under shades. Likely set the scene for impressionists. 🇩🇰🇺🇸🎨🖌️❤️🙏🗽
It's funny how Dutch and Belgian art have to be considered "Scandinavian" in the realm of art history or museum studies, just because Iceland and Finland don't really produce anything artistically.
