Sir Peter Paul Rubens (June 28, 1577 – May 30, 1640), was a Flemish Baroque painter. His Baroque art style focused on sensuality, color, and motion. He is well known for his Counter-Reformation portraits, altarpieces, landscapes, and paintings of allegorical and mythological subjects. Rubens was famous among art collectors and nobility throughout Europe. Besides art, Rubens was an art collector himself, a classical humanist scholar, and a diplomat knighted by the King of Spain, Philip IV, and the King of England, Charles I. Learn more »
