So Many Brilliant Talents: Art & Craft in the Age of Rubens

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
This volume brings together superb 17th-century paintings, sculpture, drawings, prints, and decorative arts from the Southern Netherlands, the area now known as Belgium. Representing one of the greatest periods in the history of European art, the book includes the work of Rubens, van Dyck, and Jordaens, along with contemporary examples of furniture, metalwork, glass, and other objects of the same extraordinary quality.

An introductory essay examines Flemish artistic production in context, both by describing the impact of the Eighty Years' War and by focusing on the prominent figures in the political and artistic life of the time.
