Study Heads. corpus rubenianum ludwig burchardt. Part XX

by Anne-Marie Logan and Kristin Lohse Belkin

published by Brepols, 2021

2 volumes. 536 pages, fully illustrated in colour . Hardback. 28 x 22cms. 

First of three projected volumes divided chronologically, as opposed to the thematic arrangement of the Corpus Rubenianum Ludwig Burchard. Volume I consists of drawings from the artist's childhood in Antwerp, circa 1590, through to the end of his sojourn in Italy, in October 1608. For the first time, Rubens's copies and their models are fully integrated into the rest of his graphic oeuvre, thus showing copies and original compositions created at the same time side by side. The volume contains 204 entries, including several sheets with drawings on recto and verso. Each entry consists of a detailed physical description of the drawing, provenance, exhibition history, full bibliography and a critical, interpretive discussion. Prefaced by an essay on the history of Rubens scholarship from 1892 to 2019.
