This is the final volume of the catalogue raisonné of the drawings by Peter Paul Rubens, covering the years 1621?1640. The project is a collaboration between Anne-Marie Logan, to whom belong all the Rubens attributions, and Kristin Lohse Belkin. It is the first publication that presents the artist?s entire drawn oeuvre in chronological order, previous such publications containing only selections of drawings. Accordingly, Volume III consists of the drawings from 1621 to the artist?s death in 1640. The first decade is characterized by Rubens?s first foreign commission, the paintings for the Luxembourg Palace, Marie de? Medici, the Queen Mother?s new residence in Paris, and by the demands of the artist?s diplomatic missions to the courts of Madrid and London. In contrast to the works requested by Rubens?s official duties, especially portraiture, a subject not of primary interest to the artist before, are the paintings and drawings of the second decade, predominantly inspired by the elderly painter?s marriage to the young Helena Fourment and the love and deep affection for his wife and her children. Court portraits are replaced by images of his family à trois crayons, Rubens preferred medium in these years. Helena in disguise appears in the artist?s religious, mythological and genre paintings, most gloriously in the series of drawings for The Garden of Love. Commissions for altarpieces continue but unlike the black chalk anatomical studies of the 1610s, preparatory drawings now consist of head studies in black and red chalk, the latter used for the capture and color of skin. At the same time, images of domestic bliss are accompanied by drawings of the Flemish countryside, especially after Rubens?s purchase of the seignorial estate ?Het Steen? in 1635. In addition, Rubens continues to design title-pages and even to make copies after older works of art that constitute such a large part of his earliest output. But the activity of copying the works of his predecessors for the purpose of artistic instruction now has turned into the antiquarian?s pursuit of knowledge and the collector?s desire and delight, as Rubens records ancient gems and cameos in a series of drawings with the aim of a scholarly publication that, however, never materialized. As in previous volumes, each entry consists of a detailed physical description of the drawing, provenance, exhibition history, full bibliography and a critical, interpretive discussion. All drawings by Rubens as well as a selection of comparative images are reproduced in color as far as possible.

This is Volume II in the three-volume catalogue raisonné of the drawings by Rubens covering the years 1609?20. The project is a collaboration between Anne-Marie Logan, to whom belong all the Rubens attributions, and Kristin Lohse Belkin. It is the first publication that presents the artist?s entire drawn oeuvre in chronological order, previous such publications containing only selections of drawings. By leafing through the illustrations, this arrangement offers the user a quick visual impression of the variety of techniques, media, subject matter and functions of Rubens?s drawings at any one time. Accordingly, Volume II consists of the drawings from the time of Rubens?s return from Italy and the establishment of his workshop in Antwerp to the completion of his contribution to the furnishing and decoration of the city?s new Jesuit church, today?s St. Charles Borromeo. The decade is characterized by a broad range of genres and iconography: large altarpieces stand next to cabinet-size pictures, book illustrations next to designs for tapestry, sculpture and architectural reliefs; religious, mythological and historical subjects alternate with allegories, portraits, exotic hunts and scenes from country life. Copies after other artists? works that constitute such a large part of Rubens?s early years discussed in Volume I have given way to original inventions in pen and ink and, above all, by life studies in chalk of the human body, naked or dressed. The whole spectrum of Rubens?s extraordinary creativity, nowhere presented as directly and immediately as in his drawings, is there to be contemplated in all its astonishing diversity. Each entry consists of a detailed physical description of the drawing, provenance, exhibition history, full bibliography and a critical, interpretive discussion. All drawings by Rubens as well as a selection of comparative images are reproduced in color.

Peter Paul Rubens (1577-1640) war der wohl erfolgreichste Maler des Barock. Schon zu Lebzeiten war er ein begehrter Kunstler, der begeistert gesammelt wurde. Der grobe Flame unterhielt daher einen gewaltigen Werkstattbetrieb, in dem seine Entw?rfe von seinen Mitarbeitern in gigantische Formate ?bersetzt wurden. nDiese Publikation der Albertina nimmt sich der eigenh?ndigen, der ?authentischen? Werke des Peter Paul Rubens an. Sie spannt dabei einen weiten Bogen, der vom Fr?h- bis zum Sp?twerk reicht: Ann?hernd 140 Zeichnungen, ?lskizzen und Gem?lde veranschaulichen in ihrer malerischen Virtuositeit und Brillanz sein einzigartiges Genie. Neben den ber?hmten Studien nach der Antike und den grobartigen Historienbildern, Portraits und Landschaften bilden die berehrenden Bildnisse der Kinder des Meisters den Hohepunkt dieses prachtigen Bandes - unter ihnen das popul?re Portrait des dreijahrigen Nicolaas aus der Albertina.
