    Portrait of a man disguised as an oriental

    Unsigned

    Rubens laat figuren en objecten regelmatig terugkerek in verschillende werken en. In zijn atelier bewaart hij deze veilig achter slot en grendel.
    De imposante koning Balthazar in dit schilderij is gebaseerd op een tekening van een man in oosterse kledij toegeschreven aan Gentile Bellini. Die tekening inspireert Rubens voor het schilderen van Nicolas de Respaigne , een Vlaamse koopman in Aleppo. Voor de aanbidding neemt Rubens deze kledij en houding over , maar hij geeft de koning de gelaats trekken van de sultan van Tunis, Mulay Ahmed, wiens portret hij ook eerder schilderde in 1609.

    Dit prachtige en fijn geschilderde schilderij is waarschijnlijk een latere kopie van de 'Balthazar' die ook afgebeeld is op de ets en die het 'spiegelbeeld' vormt van de oosterse maan op het gelijknamige schilderij "Adoration of the Magi (Rubens, Lyon)".

    Lijst en paneel zijn 17e eeuws.
  • Over kunstenaar

    Peter Paul Rubens (1577-1640) was born in Sieggen in Germany. He was an important Flemish painter, draughtsman en diplomat. Rubens travelled to Italy, where he was inspired by Classical art and the work of modern Italian masters such as Caravaggio.

    Rubens spent time in Spain on a diplomatic mission. In 1609, he became court painter to Archduke Albrecht of Austria (at Brussels). In this period he accepted major commissions for churches and public buildings.


    Working in the Flemish Baroque style, Rubens was renowned for his high degree of skill in every genre: in depictions of biblical and mythological scenes and historical events, in portraits, landscapes, still lifes and representations of animals.

    His versatility is also evident in his many drawings. Rubens maintained a large studio with many pupils. His home and workplace in Antwerp can still be visited today.
