Others appear suddenly and are recognized. <br />Rubens was a genius !! <br />I red many about him, spoke with many supposed experts and it seems it's just not the time another Rubens appears.

You could think of him as a Hollywood Producer, at a time w/o tv, movies or Facebook. This one painting has it all for the masses and royalty, politics, family, drama and sex. I'm sure people traveled far to see it, like the movie 'Godfather', it was high entertainment 'and' great art and craftmanship.<br />These are great posts reminding us of painters we may have forgotten about and can now explore.

To contemporary eyes, his drawings can seem a bit more spontaneous and easy to sink into, but overall, what a guy!<br /><br />On the other hand, I've always thought that Ruben's big oil of Marie De Medici at Marseilles was one of the most troublesome examples of an artist kissing up to the rich and powerful. On one level it is beautifully painted- on another it's creepy.Philip Kochhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05191070779177407750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5682081471599286551.post-52473871068486184292011-02-01T07:37:59.436-05:002011-02-01T07:37:59.436-05:00That Ruebens is a WOW! great choice.That Ruebens is a WOW! great choice.mariandioguardi.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16963944767715466681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5682081471599286551.post-48854763598567520972011-02-01T01:26:58.056-05:002011-02-01T01:26:58.056-05:00I'm having flashbacks to art history class and...I'm having flashbacks to art history class and the following years when I was obsessed with the idea of traveling across Europe to see the art...
