Exhibition catalogue. Summary: Peter Paul Rubens (1577-1640), a court painter famed throughout Europe, created a synthesis of the nuances and paradoxes of his time. His works remained a source of inspiration for many artists right into the twentieth century. BOZAR and the Royal Museum of Fine Arts Antwerp immerses itself in his oeuvre once more. The themes of violence, power, lust, religion, elegance, and poetry are explored in works by the master and his heirs. Among other works, the exhibition includes paintings by Van Dyck, Gainsborough, and Delacroix, as well as etchings by Rembrandt and Picasso, who was often dubbed "the Rubens of the 20th century".
