Peter Paul Rubens Sold at Auction Prices

Painter, Engraver, b. 1577 - d. 1640

Petrus Paulus Rubens was a man and an artist full of contradictions. Flemish by birth, he served 17th century monarchs from both British and Spanish courts as a painter and diplomat. Petrus Paulus Rubens' paintings often reflected his Catholic leanings and his humanitarian upbringing.

Hallmarks of Petrus Paulus Rubens' artwork include complex figure groupings and working on large pieces. The term Rubenesque developed from his depictions of fleshy, curvaceous women. Roman Catholic churches, as well as many members of Europe's royalty, commissioned Petrus Paulus Rubens' paintings.

Like other artists of his time, Petrus Paulus Rubens' drawings were preparatory work for his paintings. They cover a wide variety of subjects, including adult nobles, children, animals, and landscapes. Their richness and attention to detail make them works of art in their own right. Consider some of the many fine portrait paintings for sale or at auction to add to your art display.

  • PORTRAIT OIL PAINTING AFTER PETER PAUL RUBENS SIGNED
    Mar. 29, 2025

    PORTRAIT OIL PAINTING AFTER PETER PAUL RUBENS SIGNED

    Est: $100 - $150

    An oil painting on canvas depicting a portrait of a couple after the original oil painting on canvas, Self portrait with Isabella Brant, c. 1609 to 1610, by Sir Peter Paul Rubens, 1577 to 1640. Signed by the artist, lower right. Directly after his return from Italy, the 32 year old Rubens married the 18 year old Isabella Brant. This double portrait, which broke new ground in portrait painting, was purportedly done shortly thereafter. Rubens did not however give up using traditional symbolism: Honeysuckle was a well known symbol for faithfulness and hands laid over one another have symbolized matrimony since ancient times. However these references are integrated into this snapshot-like scene in which middle class contentedness, substantial affluence and strong affection are expressed. Sir Peter Paul Rubens was a Flemish artist and diplomat. He is considered the most influential artist of the Flemish Baroque tradition. Rubenss highly charged compositions reference erudite aspects of classical and Christian history. His unique and immensely popular Baroque style emphasized movement, colour, and sensuality, which followed the immediate, dramatic artistic style promoted in the Counter Reformation. Rubens was a painter producing altarpieces, portraits, landscapes, and history paintings of mythological and allegorical subjects. One of a kind artwork.

    Der Maler war einer der bekanntesten und wichtigsten Lehrer des jungen Peter Paul Rubens (1577-1640). ALEXANDER DER GROSSE KÄMPFT GEGEN DIE AMAZONEN Öl auf Holz. 66 x 107,5 cm. In ebonisiertem Rahmen mit Goldornamenten. Darstellung des mythologischen Helden Alexander des Großen bei den Amazonen. Als neunte von zwölf Arbeiten war Herkules auferlegt worden, den Zaubergürtel der Amazonenkönigin Hippolyte zu rauben. In diesem vielfigurigen Meisterwerk schildert Otto van Veen die blutige Schlacht, die die daraufhin entbrennt. Die dichte Drängung der kämpferischen Handlung wird noch durch die Umgebung verstärkt: Eine dunkle Hügelkette kesselt die Menschenmenge ein, deren Speere in der Komposition trichterförmig zusammenlaufen und somit eine Sogwirkung für das Auge erzeugen, das sich unweigerlich auf das Zentrum der Darstellung konzentriert.

    Peter Paul Rubens (Siegen 1577 - Antwerp 1640) circle of, Saint Catherine of Alexandria

    Est: €10,000 - €12,000

    Oil on canvas, 129.5 x 94 cm. Century The work is based on the painting by Peter Paul Rubens and engraved by Schelte von Bolswert. Rubens, known as "the Prince of the Baroque", was the great master who revolutionised both Flemish and European painting. His early training came from the masters Otto van Veen and Jan Brueghel the Elder. His trip to Italy, where he stayed, studied and painted for eight years, was fundamental to his artistic growth. His first stop was Venice, where Titian, Veronese and Tintoretto studied. He later came into contact with Vincenzo I Gonzaga, Duke of Mantua, becoming the family's court painter, a position he held until the end of his stay in Italy. In Mantua, Rubens had the opportunity to closely and assiduously study the rich ducal collection. By making copies of several famous paintings, he was able to practise technically on the examples of the great masters. In 1601 he was sent by the Duke to Rome, where he was able to broaden his figurative horizons even further by copying the models of Michelangelo and Raphael and by studying antiquity, also focusing on the contemporary artistic production of Carracci, Caravaggio and Federico Barocci. After leaving Italy, he settled in Antwerp, where he set up his workshop, applying the methods of organised production, that is, employing his collaborators on the basis of rational criteria and individual specialisations. Among the numerous painters who came out of Rubens's workshop or who were strongly influenced by the master, we remember: Cornelis and Paul de Vos, Jacob Jordaens, Pieter Van Mol, Victor Wolvoet, Joanna Vergouwen, Jan Boeckhorst known as Lange Jan, Lucas Van Uden, Theodor Van Thulden, Peter Van Lint, Willem Van Harp, Vincent Adrianssen, Pieter Van Avont, Jan and Hendrick van Balen, Theodor Boeyemans or Boeijermans, Vincent Malò, Gerard Segher Gaspar de Crayer and Abraham Willemsens.

This slightly more cropped version was later expanded in an oil sketch by Rubens from 1632-34, which is now held in the National Gallery of Prague [DO 4602], which relates more closely to the present painting. This later version was also worked into various prints by engravers such as Pieter II de Jode (1606-1674), in a reversed format.

    Pieter Paul Rubens (Siegen 1577 - Anversa 1640) bottega/allievo del XVII secolo

    Est: €1,400 - €2,500

    Pieter Paul Rubens (Siegen 1577 - Anversa 1640) bottega/allievo del XVII secolo Carità Romana Olio su tela 82 x 116 cm Cornice: legno scolpito e dorato, decoro a palmette e conchiglie alternate, Centro Italia, XVII secolo. L'opera in esame si riferisce al dipinto raffigurante "Cimone e Pero (Caritas Romana)" di Rubens, conservato al Rijksmuseum di Amsterdam o alla versione del Museum del Siegerlandes a Siegen. La prima formazione di Rubens si deve ai maestri Otto van Veen e Jan Brueghel il Vecchio. Fondamentale per la sua crescita artistica fu il suo viaggio in Italia. Ha soggiornato, studiato e dipinto per otto anni nel Bel Paese, facendo tappa prima a Venezia, dove studiò Tiziano, Veronese e Tintoretto. In seguito, entrato in contatto con Vincenzo I Gonzaga duca di Mantova, divenne loro pittore di corte, carica che conservò sino alla fine del suo soggiorno italiano. A Mantova, Rubens ebbe modo di studiare da vicino e assiduamente la ricca collezione ducale. Realizzando copie di diversi dipinti famosi ebbe modo di esercitarsi tecnicamente sugli esempi dei più grandi maestri italiani. Nel 1601 venne inviato dal duca a Roma, dove ebbe modo di ampliare ulteriormente i suoi orizzonti figurativi, grazie alla copia di modelli di Michelangelo e Raffaello e allo studio dell'antico, guardando anche alla coeva produzione artistica del Carracci, di Caravaggio e di Federico Barocci. Lasciata l’Italia si stabilì e ad Anversa, ove organizzò il suo atelier, applicando i metodi di produzione organizzata, ovvero impiegando i suoi collaboratori con criteri razionali e in base alle singole specializzazioni. Tra i molti pittori usciti dalla bottega di Rubens o fortemente influenzati dal maestro, ricordiamo: Cornelis e Paul de Vos, Thomas Willeboirts Bosschaert, Jacob Jordaens, Pieter Van Mol, Victor Wolvoet, Joanna Vergouwen, Jan Boeckhorst detto Lange Jan, Lucas Van Uden, Theodor Van Thulden, Peter Van Lint, Willem Van Harp, Vincent Adrianssen, Pieter Van Avont, Jan e Hendrick van Balen, Theodor Boeyemans o Boeijermans, Vincent Malò, Gerard Segher, Gaspar de Crayer e Abraham Willemsens. Pieter Paul Rubens (Siegen 1577 - Antwerp 1640) 17th-century workshop/pupil of Roman Charity Oil on canvas 82 x 116 cm Frame: carved and gilded wood, decoration with alternating palmettes and shells, Central Italy, 17th century. This artwork refers to the painting of "Cimone and Pero (Caritas Romana)" by Rubens, kept in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam or the version in the Siegerlandes Museum in Siegen.

    Est: €7,000 - €8,000

    Rubens, known as "the Prince of the Baroque", was the great master who revolutionised both Flemish and European painting. His early training came from the masters Otto van Veen and Jan Brueghel the Elder. His trip to Italy, where he stayed, studied and painted for eight years, was fundamental to his artistic growth. His first stop was Venice, where Titian, Veronese and Tintoretto studied. He later came into contact with Vincenzo I Gonzaga, Duke of Mantua, becoming the family's court painter, a position he held until the end of his stay in Italy. In Mantua, Rubens had the opportunity to closely and assiduously study the rich ducal collection. By making copies of several famous paintings, he was able to practise technically on the examples of the great masters. In 1601 he was sent by the Duke to Rome, where he was able to broaden his figurative horizons even further by copying the models of Michelangelo and Raphael and by studying antiquity, also focusing on the contemporary artistic production of Carracci, Caravaggio and Federico Barocci. After leaving Italy, he settled in Antwerp, where he set up his workshop, applying the methods of organised production, that is, employing his collaborators on the basis of rational criteria and individual specialisations. Among the numerous painters who came out of Rubens's workshop or who were strongly influenced by the master, we remember: Cornelis and Paul de Vos, Jacob Jordaens, Pieter Van Mol, Victor Wolvoet, Joanna Vergouwen, Jan Boeckhorst known as Lange Jan, Lucas Van Uden, Theodor Van Thulden, Peter Van Lint, Willem Van Harp, Vincent Adrianssen, Pieter Van Avont, Jan and Hendrick van Balen, Theodor Boeyemans or Boeijermans, Vincent Malò, Gerard Segher Gaspar de Crayer and Abraham Willemsens.
