DE BIBLIOTHEEK VAN PIETER PAUWEL RUBENS : EEN RECONSTRUCTIE. DE GULDEN PASSER. JAARGANG 78 - 79.
Antwerpen, Vereniging der Antwerpse Bibliofielen, 2000-2001 softcover, originele uitgeversomslag met flappen, 16.2x24.8 cm., 387 pages, Tekst NL. *(bibliotheek stempels aanwezig)
Jaarboek van de vereniging der Antwerpse Bibliofielen. Met facsimile veilingcatalogus bibliotheek Albert Rubens feb. 1658 Ruim een halve eeuw geleden begon de bibliograaf Prosper Arents aan de realisatie van zijn vermetel plan om de bibliotheek van Pieter Pauwel Rubens virtueel te reconstrueren. In 1961 publiceerde hij in Noordgouw een bondig maar nog steeds lezenswaardig verslag over de stand, op dat ogenblik, van zijn werkzaamheden onder de titel De bibliotheek van Pieter Pauwel Rubens. Toen hij in 1984 op hoge leeftijd overleed, had hij vele honderden titels achterhaald, onderzocht en bibliografisch beschreven. Persklaar kon men zijn notities echter allerminst noemen, iets wat hij overigens zelf goed besefte. In 1994 slaagden Alfons Thijs en Ludo Simons erin onderzoeksgelden van de Universiteit Antwerpen / UFSIA ter beschikking te krijgen om Arents' gegevens electronisch te laten verwerken. Lia Baudouin, classica van vorming, die deze moeilijke en omvangrijke taak op zich nam, beperkte zich niet tot het invoeren van de titels, maar heeft ook bijkomende exemplaren opgespoord, Arents' bibliografische verwijzingen nagekeken en aangevuld en de uitgegeven correspondentie van P.P. Rubens opnieuw gescreend inzake lectuurgegevens. Een informele werkgroep, bestaande uit Arnout Balis, Frans Baudouin, Jacques de Bie, Pierre Delsaerdt, Marcus de Schepper, Ludo Simons en Alfons Thijs, begeleidde L. Baudouin bij haar ?monnikenwerk?. Na het verstrijken van het mandaat van de onderzoekster bleef toch nog heel wat werk te verrichten om het geheel persklaar te maken. Elly Cockx-Indestege, Jacques de Bie, Marcus de Schepper en Alfons Thijs behartigden deze laatste productiefase. Anna E.C. Simoni was zo vriendelijk voor Engelse samenvattingen te zorgen. De redactie achtte het nuttig dat Alfons Thijs, via bio-bibliografische gegevens over Prosper Arents, de cultuurhistorische context schetste waarin deze ?poging tot reconstructie van de Rubensbibliotheek? tot stand gekomen is. Zij prijst zich gelukkig dat Frans Baudouin, met zijn grondige kennis van Rubens en diens wereld, bereid was in een verkennende studie te peilen naar de inhoudelijke verscheidenheid en de functionele betekenis van deze kunstenaars- én geleerdenbibliotheek. De titelbeschrijvingen vormen uiteraard de hoofdbrok van de publicatie. Hierbij dient onderstreept dat noch Prosper Arents noch de bewerkers van zijn notities alle beschrijvingen met het boek in de hand konden controleren. In een minderheid van de gevallen moesten zij zich verlaten op bibliografische informatie uit bibliotheekcatalogi, bibliografieën en andere referentiewerken, soms op door bibliotheekverantwoordelijken schriftelijk verstrekte inlichtingen. Bij de aanduiding van bewaarplaatsen van de aangehaalde edities is niet naar volledigheid gestreefd. Enkel die exemplaren zijn vermeld welke door Arents of de bewerkers bij het onderzoek betrokken werden. Zoals uit de bijdrage van Frans Baudouin nog zal blijken, zijn de titels gegroepeerd in een aantal afdelingen, zelf geordend op basis van de toenemende mate van onzekerheid over de vraag of P.P. Rubens van het geciteerde werk wel degelijk een exemplaar in zijn bibliotheek had. In vele gevallen is op basis van het bronnenmateriaal niet uit te maken welke editie van een bepaald werk P.P. Rubens exact bezat. In zulke omstandigheden heeft Prosper Arents, in de regel, voor de (ten aanzien van de bron) meest recente uitgave geopteerd. De gebruiker van het corpus weze er zich dus steeds van bewust dat P.P. Rubens in werkelijkheid eventueel een andere, met name oudere editie van het betrokken werk kan bezeten hebben. Slechts van drie titels uit Rubens' bibliotheek is een exemplaar bekend dat zeker ooit eigendom was van de meester, waar namelijk een handgeschreven opdracht aan P.P. Rubens in voorkomt. Rubens verwierf zijn boekenbezit deels via aankopen bij de Officina Plantiniana. Slechts een deel van de desbetreffende archiefgegevens is door Max Rooses in zijn Petrus-Paulus Rubens en Balthasar Moretus gepubliceerd. Prosper Arents heeft de boekhouding van Moretus er opnieuw op nageslagen. Uit diezelfde journalen transcribeerde Prosper Arents ook de vermeldingen van: 1o een 70-tal boeken in 1628-1633 aangekocht door P.P. Rubens voor rekening van zijn zoon Albert, en 2o een 115 boeken aangekocht door Albert Rubens zelf (althans tot 1640). Elk van die werken heeft Arents tevens, naar best vermogen, geïdentificeerd. We hopen dit materiaal één van de volgende jaren te publiceren. scripties van Max Rooses nagekeken, waar nodig gecorrigeerd en aangevuld en vervolgens alle aldus gevonden titels naar best vermogen geïdentificeerd en er exemplaren van opgespoord. Identificatie was vaak niet gemakkelijk, daar de bibliograaf vaststelde dat in de journalen vermelde formaten, vooral bij kleine boekjes, ?meer naar het uitzicht van het boek dan naar het vouwen van het blad? verwezen.

Art, Music and Spectacle in the Age of Rubens
, Brepols - Harvey Miller, 2013 Hardback, VIII 351 p., 203 b/w ill. 35 colour ill., CD, 210 x 280 mm Languages: English, Fine copy. ISBN 9781905375837.
This volume presents an interdisciplinary study of the triumphal entry of the Cardinal-Infante Ferdinand into Antwerp in 1635, and pays special attention to Rubens?s monumental arches and oil sketches that ornamented the entry. This volume deals with the triumphal entry of the Cardinal-Infante Ferdinand, brother of King Philip IV of Spain, into Antwerp in 1635, one of the largest and most spectacular festivals ever mounted in an early modern city. The outdoor festivities in honor of the city?s new governor included a citywide procession, performances, fireworks, music, and political speeches. Along the processional route appeared nine richly ornamented stages and arches designed by Peter Paul Rubens and executed by a group of local painters and sculptors, including Jacob Jordaens, Theodoor van Thulden, and Jan van den Hoecke. To commemorate the event, the city commissioned a lavish festival book, entitled the Pompa Introitus Ferdinandi (1641), which contains learned commentaries by Jan Gaspar Gevaerts, a city official and Latinist, as well as folio engravings by Theodoor van Thulden after Rubens's stages. More than a simple description of the event, Gevaerts? volume offers a rich compilation of references to ancient writers and reproductions of ancient coins.While most literature on the subject has focused on Rubens?s nine monumental arches and his twelve preparatory oil sketches for the designs, this volume will examine the entry and its accompanying festival book as a whole. A group of highly distinguished specialists from different disciplines will discuss the entry and Gevaerts? book from a myriad of viewpoints, including art, architecture, music, theater, history, politics, classical knowledge, and economic and intellectual networks. It is the first time that the entry will be examined from a truly interdisciplinary perspective. The book draws on a wide variety of primary sources, including Rubens?s preparatory oil sketches, Gevaerts? festival book, pamphlets describing the entry, and political songs from the period.

Drawings of Peter Paul Rubens, A Critical Catalogue vols; 1-4, - 4-volumes catalogue raisonné of all drawings.
, Brepols - Harvey Miller, 2021-2023 4 vols., 536 pages + 732 pages, 216 x 280 mm , 260 + 291 colour ill., English, Hardcovers, FINE ISBN 9782503595702.
This is the 4-volume catalogue raisonné of all drawings considered by the authors to be by Rubens. It covers the years 1590- 1608, Volumes II and III dealing, respectively, with the periods 1609-20 and 1621- 40. 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 provides the user with a quick visual impression of the variety of techniques, media, subject and functions of Rubens?s drawings at an one time. Volume I consists of the drawings of the artist?s childhood, apprenticeship and first years as a master in Antwerp to his formative years in Italy, spent mostly in Mantua and Rome, with an excursion to Spain. These are the years primarily devoted to learning and absorbing the art of the past, from sixteenth-century German and Netherlandish prints to the works of the ancient and Italian Renaissance masters. A large number of these drawings consists of copies after the works of other artists, largely executed as part of the artistic training at the time. For the first time, Rubens's copies and their models are not discussed and illustrated as a separate entity but are fully integrated into the rest of his graphic oeuvre, thus showing copies and original compositions created at the same time side by side. The volume contains 204 entries, including several sheets with drawings on recto and verso. Each entry consists of a detailed physical description of the drawing, provenance, exhibition history, full bibliography and a critical, interpretive discussion. In addition, Volume I contains an essay on the history of the scholarship of Rubens?s drawings, a subject that has not been treated before. All drawings by Rubens and the works by other artists he copied as well as a selection of other comparative images are reproduced in color. 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.

Superbe et rare recueil présentant les tableaux peints par Rubens pour orner le palais du Luxembourg construit pour Marie de Medicis. Graesse, Trésor de livres rares, 12 ; Sander 747 ; Cohen, Guide de l’amateur de livres à gravures, 914 (pour l’édition de 1808) ; Brunet, IV, 1443. « C’est l’histoire allégorique de Marie de Médicis. Les originaux de Rubens, qui ont orné longtemps le Palais du Luxembourg, construit pour cette princesse, sont maintenant au Louvre » (Cohen). Un recueil similaire avait déjà paru en 1710 sous le titre : « La Galerie du Palais du Luxembourg, peinte par Rubens », mais le présent ouvrage, publié presque cent ans plus tard, est entièrement nouveau, avec des gravures différentes, accompagnées d’un texte explicatif. Les bibliographes mentionnent une édition de Paris, 1808 mais nous ne sommes parvenus à en localiser aucun exemplaire. On apprend dans l’Avertissement que : « La Galerie du Luxembourg, cette belle collection des tableaux de Rubens, avait déjà été reproduite par le burin. Mais depuis longtemps le recueil en était devenu rare dans le commerce. L’éditeur actuel s’est flatté qu’en reproduisant de nouveau [cette belle collection des tableaux de Rubens], sous une forme plus commode, accompagnée d’un texte historique et allégorique, elle serait bien reçue du Public. Il a pensé ainsi que Rubens ayant excellé dans le choix et l’éclat des couleurs, ce serait lui faire perdre plus qu’à un autre de se borner à rendre les traits et l’expression. Il a donc mis tous ses soins pour imiter, autant qu’il est possible, le charme du coloris de l’original ». La superbe illustration se compose d’un portrait de Rubens par Le Clerc gravé par Benoist et de 24 planches d’après les tableaux de Rubens gravées par Benoist, Duthé, Gauthier le jeune, Gabriel, Gouyon, Disart et Pierron. Elles représentent : un Portrait de Marie de Médicis en Minerve, un Portrait de François II, un Portrait de Jeanne d’Autriche, les Parques, la Naissance de la reine, l’Education de la reine, Henri IV qui délibère sur son futur mariage, le Mariage de Marie de Médicis avec Henri IV, le Débarquement de la reine à Marseille, la Ville de Lyon qui va au-devant de la reine, l’Accouchement de la reine, Henri IV qui part pour l’Allemagne, le Couronnement de la reine, l’Apothéose de Henri IV, le Gouvernement de la reine, le Voyage de la reine au pont de Cé, l’Echange des deux reines, la Félicité de la régence, la Majorité de Louis XIII, la Reine s’enfuit de Blois, la Reine prend le parti de la paix, Conclusion de la paix, la Paix confirmée dans le ciel, le Tems découvre la vérité. « Les figures existent en noir et imprimées en couleur. En noir, reliure, 350 francs ; en couleurs, reliure, 2 000 francs » (Sander). Précieux exemplaire du tirage de luxe, dont l’ensemble des planches ont été imprimées en couleurs et finement rehaussées à la main à l’époque. Le présent ouvrage étant l’un des premiers à comporter des planches imprimées en couleurs qui reproduisent fidèlement des tableaux d’un grand maitre, il occupe une place importante dans l’étude de l’histoire de l’art. Bel exemplaire de ce rare recueil orné de 25 superbes planches en vifs coloris de l’époque, conservé dans sa reliure de l’époque en demi-chagrin rouge.

Ouvrage collectif et interdisciplinaire interrogeant sous divers angles le rapport de Rubens et son oeuvre à l'art musical. Quelle était la culture musicale de Pierre Paul Rubens (1577-1640) Les archives et les témoignages directs restent évasifs et laconiques sur la question.

Thinking through Rubens Selected Studies by Arnout Balis.

Over the course of his life, Arnout Balis (d. 2021) did a lot of thinking about and around Rubens. A principal beneficiary of this was the Corpus Rubenianum, that multi-volume catalogue of the work of the artist to which he devoted so much of his scholarly endeavour ? as author, and, still more, as the most generous of editors. But he also produced wide-ranging, as well as more closely detailed, studies on the artist that were written for a variety of contexts. Arnout Balis was an artist before he was an art historian, and the question of how Rubens channelled his ideas into visual form constantly attracted and intrigued him. He was fascinated, too, by the practicalities of the artist?s method of production, given the enormous output of Rubens?s studio. Not only did he rigorously assemble and analyse every scrap of information about pupils or associates of the master, but he made himself an expert in the work of each of Rubens?s artistic contemporaries. In all his investigations, whether involving the attribution of a painting, an iconographic puzzle or the solution to a historical problem, he took nothing for granted, treating any received idea or initial intuition with due scepticism until it could be shown to stand the test of the evidence, documentary and visual. The present volume shows the Balis method in action. It includes several studies already acclaimed as exemplary, and others which deserve to be more widely known. Five of them are made available here for the first time in English translation.

Peter Paul Rubens and His Landscapes: Ideas on Nature and Art
be-, Brepols - Harvey Miller, 2014 Hardback, 300 pages., 38 b/w ill. 12 colour ill., 190 x 250 mm, Languages: English fine! . ISBN 9782503550381.
Painting landscapes was very much a private activity for Peter Paul Rubens. Whilst the majority of his other works were commissioned, the landscapes seem to have been painted for his own pleasure and delight and stayed in the artist?s possession until his death. Most of them were painted in the last decade of his life; a happy period, in which Rubens retired from public duties and spent most of his free time studying the antique and enjoying sojourns on his country estate, castle Het Steen. To grasp this profoundly personal character of Rubens?s landscapes, this book considers the artist?s highly complex method of pictorial invention to illuminate the perception, implementation, dissemination, and posthumous reception of views on nature and landscape as depicted in Rubens?s landscape art. By investigating contemporary notions on the changing perception of nature and landscape in late 16th and early 17th-century southern Netherlandish culture, Rubens?s position within this socio-cultural matrix will be established, thus shedding new light on the artist?s own perception of nature and landscape. The re-assessment of the influence of classical and contemporary ideas about nature and landscape, as well as Rubens?s personal sense of place, will illuminate important characteristics which further define Rubens?s ideas about nature implemented in his landscape art. Also, fresh light will be cast on the sudden promulgation and dissemination of Rubens?s apparently private views on nature and landscape through a novel examination of the print series of the Small and Large Landscapes, reproducing the artist?s landscapes. The final theme in this illuminating book considers the posthumous reception of Rubens?s ?painted ideas of landscape?. The book also contains an updated version of the catalogue raisonne of Rubens?s landscape art, supplemented by a record of the Small and Large Landscapes prints series

The Flemish artist Peter Paul Rubens is probably the most important foreign artist to have worked in England. The story of how this came to be, of what he did when he was in England and what he painted for King Charles I is the story of this book. Charles and his father, the first Stuart monarchs of Great Britain, led and promoted a great wave of interest in the arts, in particular the visual arts, that culminated in Rubens painting nine large canvases to decorate the ceiling of Inigo Jones?s Banqetting Hall, the ceremonial centre of the Court in Whitehall - a monument that is still intact today. It is this cycle, an hitherto unappreciated masterpiece of Baroque state art, that is the focus of this book. How Rubens came to obtain the commission is a tale of international politics and diplomacy in which the artist himself played a significant role. The author relates these complex political relationships and missions with great insight and clarity, and in doing so also describes the cultural and social setting in which Rubens found himself while in London. The illustrations that accompany the text include not only many of Rubens's own paintings and drawings made when he was in London, but also some of the now well-known works by the Italian and North European Renaissance masters that Rubens would have seen in the magnificent art collections of the King and the English aristocracy. Foremost however among the illustrations are the reproductions of the Banqueting Hall ceiling itself: these are mostly in colour, showing each of the three central scenes both complete and with striking details that would be difficult to see in the Hall itself. Also the corner oval painting as well as the long, celebratory, exuberant processions on either side are reproduced in colour and in detail, so that the reader, guided by the author's full descriptions and interpretations, can experience a unique viewing and understanding of Rubens's masterpiece. The Author, Gregory Martin, has been interested in the ceiling paintings of the Banquetting Hall ever since he worked at the National Gallery in the 1960s, when he wrote the catalogue of the Gallery's Flemish paintings. Towards the end of his subsequent career at Christie's, where he was a director concerned with old master paintings, he was commissioned to write the Corpus Rubenianum volume on the ceiling decoration of the Banquetting Hall which was published in 2005. In the present book he returns to the subject, treating it and the related matter of Rubens in London in a way designed to appeal to a wider readership.

The art of Peter Paul Rubens (1577-1640) is synonymous with the female nude, with the term 'Rubenesque' first coined in the 19th century to describe a voluptuous female body. Yet remarkably, there has never been a focused study of Rubens' depictions of women, making this book, and the exhibition that it will accompany, a first. Bringing together a diverse range of paintings and drawings from throughout the artist's career and from a range of international lenders, the exhibition at Dulwich Picture Gallery (October 2023 - January 2024) will challenge the popular assumption that Rubens only painted one type of woman. Instead, it will present a more nuanced view of the varied and essential role that women played in the artist's life and work, uniting and contributing to recent scholarly developments in subjects such as the identities of Rubens' sitters, 17th century artistic theory and practice, and Rubens' treatment of the human body. Rubens evidently enjoyed painting the female figure, especially in its sensual and unclothed form. But his women are never mere bodies trapped by the male gaze, on the contrary; they are proud and complex heroines, full of character and gravitas. No other male artist has created such potent images of female power, assurance, determination, commitment, and beauty. Providing a catalogue for the works in the exhibition and featuring three introductory essays that contextualise Rubens' work, this publication will both contribute to the existing corpus of scholarly literature on Rubens and introduce his masterpieces to new audiences, discussing them in the context of current debates around sexuality, power and feminism.
Rubens's House architecture and sculpture Corpus Rubenianum Ludwig Burchard XXII.2 (Rubens house) 2 volumes.

The house that Rubens built a few years after his return to Antwerp from Italy, and where he lived to the end of his life, was for the most part lost during the course of alterations carried out over the years. Two original parts survive, and they attest to the grandeur of the artist?s house: the portico and garden pavilion. When the house came to be reconstructed in 1938?1946 a great many unsolved questions had to be tackled, but eventually the difficult project was concluded successfully, although the result sometimes departs from what is historically correct. The reconstructed house became a popular museum. Undoubtedly the house, which included the family?s living quarters and contained Rubens?s much admired art collection as well as his famous studio, was built according to the master?s own ideas. It is thus part of Rubens?s oeuvre and forms the subject of this catalogue raisonné. Regrettably almost nothing survives of Rubens's designs, which certainly must have existed. The present volume is the result of a quest to gather together and critically assess all authentic architectural elements and written, pictorial, and archaeological sources. This allows us to form an impression of the appearance of Rubens?s unique house as well as the functions of its various parts. In addition, the sources that the pictor doctus Rubens used for inspiration in his design are discussed at length: architectural treatises, ancient art as well as the Renaissance architecture he had come to know during his stay in Italy.
