Excerpt from Peter Paul Rubens: His Life and Genius Dr. Waagen's visit to England enabled him to add a variety of criticisms on celebrated pictures now in this country, which will he especially interesting to the English reader. The translation will he found most faithful to the sense and spirit of the original. The Editor has ventured to add a few notes of no value whatever to the artist or the connoisseur, hut not perhaps without interest and amusement for the mere amateur. Some pictures have been added to the specimens noticed in the text, always keeping in view that the object of the work was to give a catalogue of the pictures of Rubens, only so far as they illustrated certain general principles.

Peter Paul Rubens was the most inventive and prolific northern European artist of his age. This book discusses his life and work in relation to three interrelated themes: spirit, ingenuity, and genius. It argues that Rubens and his reception were pivotal in the transformation of early modern ingenuity into Romantic genius. Ranging across the artist’s entire career, it explores Rubens’s engagement with these themes in his art and life. Alexander Marr looks at Rubens’s forays into altarpiece painting in Italy as well as his collaborations with fellow artists in his hometown of Antwerp, and his complex relationship with the spirit of pleasure. It concludes with his late landscapes in connection to genius loci, the spirit of the place.
