Peter Paul Rubens is considered one of the most important Flemish painters of the 17th century. His style became an international definition of the animated,sensuous aspects of baroque painting. Combining the bold brushwork, luminous color, and shimmering light of the Venetian school with vigor of Michelangelo's art and the formal dynamism of Hellenistic sculpture, Rubens created a vibrant art, its energies emanating from tensions between the intellectual and emotional, the classical and the romantic. For 200 years the vitality and eloquence of his work influenced such artists as Antoine Watteau, in the early 18th century, and Eugène Delacroix and Pierre Auguste Renoir, in the 19th century.
