The Irresistible Passion of Peter Paul Rubens

The Irresistible Passion of Peter Paul Rubens
(Peter Paul Rubens’s “The Elevation of the Cross”)

“Rubens is my favorite artist, in part, because his paintings capture the totality of the human condition in its fleshy, pathological, and metaphysical realities.”

Timeless reading in a fleeting world.
