The Horses of Peter Paul Rubens

Perseus liberating AndromedaA Flemish Baroque painter, Peter Paul Rubens was a major player when it comes to Baroque style art. His work is bold and lively while giving the viewer a feeling of color and movement.

Although he didn’t seem to find the horse a particularly moving subject, they do make an appearance in a selection of his art.

His deep understanding of perspective and the ability to convey overwhelming emotion with his art make Mr. Rubens a master no matter what he paints.

    His work is really engrossing, it could take years to see all of the small details in some of his massive works.

    Glad you like the images, his stuff is absolutely worth seeing in person. :)

    I would really like to emphasize the movement portrayed in some of these paintings by Rubens as he defines the form of the body which is being painted.
