Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 382282884X, Paperback)

The Flemish baroque painter Peter Paul Rubens, born on June 28, 1577, died May 30, 1640 was the most renowned northern European artist of his day, and and is now widely recognised as one of the foremost painters in Western art history. By completing the fusion of the realistic tradition of Flemish painting with the imaginative freedom and classical themes of Italian Renaissance, he fundamentally revitalised and redirected northern European painting.
