The importance of
the baroque period in Antwerp can not be over estimated. Three great artist
jump out: Pieter Paul Rubens (1577-1640), Jacob Jordaens (1593-1678) and Sir
Anthony Van Dyck (1599-1641). While the first two where mainly painters it is
known Rubens himself was involved in the process of publishing prints after his
paintings. Jordaens did make a few etchings himself, one of them in my inventory
below.
Format,
design and quality make this work outstanding. Research has proofed that there
was no work highly paid for too the engraver, then these large Rubens plates.
The so called Rubens graphic is therefore with reason highly estimated.
