EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a study for Balthazar, created by the renowned Flemish artist Peter Paul Rubens in the early 17th century. Measuring 54 by 39.3 cm, this oil on paper laid down on panel artwork is currently housed at the J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles, USA. Rubens, known for his mastery of the baroque style and his profound understanding of biblical scenes, brings to life one of the three magi or wise men from the Bible. This preparatory sketch beautifully captures Balthazar's bearded and masculine features with vibrant colors that add depth and character to his portrait. The painting belongs to Rubens' larger body of work centered around biblical events such as the adoration of the magi or three kings. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke, showcasing his skillful technique and ability to convey emotion through art. In this particular piece, Balthazar wears a turban atop his head, adding an exotic touch to his appearance. His expression exudes wisdom and reverence as he gazes upon a scene from the Bible story. This print allows viewers to appreciate Rubens' exceptional talent while offering a glimpse into seventeenth-century art history. It serves as a testament to both religious devotion and artistic excellence that continues to captivate audiences today.
