"Peter Paul Rubens", by J. Gilbert, in the Exhibition of the Society of Painters in Water Colours, 1862. Engraving of a painting. The representation of the great masters in their studios has been a favourite subject with modern and especially foreign, artists. Mr. Gilbert may naturally take this means of showing his admiration and reverence for the great Flemish master...The attitude of Rubens, stepping back to see the effect of his work, is not merely characteristic of all artists, but is especially appropriate when assumed as the habit of this painter; for no master depended more upon distance for the effect of his paintings, many of which, like the ceiling at Whitehall, were of colossal size, and only intended to be seen at a long distance...Modern artists employ a cane or stick, termed a "maulstick, " to steady the arm, but we may mention that Mr. Gilbert is historically correct in representing Rubens without such an aid...All the accessories of this picture have a gorgeous and voluptuous character well suited to the subject. A florid and boldly-carved column, similar to that in the picture, is introduced in several of the painter's works...The little skin bags contain colours, and the pigments were so prepared up till a recent date'. From "Illustrated London News", 1862

EDITORS COMMENTS
Peter Paul Rubens, by J. Gilbert: A Reverent Homage to the Flemish Master in the Exhibition of the Society of Painters in Water Colours, 1862, by W. Thomas. The depiction of great masters in their studios has long been a favoured theme among modern artists, and J. Gilbert seizes this opportunity to express his admiration and reverence for the legendary Flemish painter, Peter Paul Rubens. In this evocative watercolour engraving, Rubens is shown in deep contemplation, stepping back from his canvas to assess the impact of his work. This pose, characteristic of artists striving for perfection, is particularly fitting for Rubens, who relied heavily on distance for the full effect of his monumental paintings, many of which were designed for grand spaces like the ceiling at Whitehall. Gilbert's historical accuracy is noteworthy; Rubens is portrayed without the modern aid of a maulstick, or cane, to steady his arm. Instead, the artist meticulously recreates the opulent surroundings of Rubens' studio, filled with richly hued pigments contained in small leather bags. The column, adorned with intricate carvings, mirrors those found in several of Rubens' own works. With its florid and boldly-carved details, this watercolour not only pays homage to the master but also transports us to the vibrant world of Rubens' artistry.
