The allegories, sacred scenes and vigorous action of Rubens's paintings come to life in these prints after Peter Paul Rubens (1577–1640), engraved long after his death for nineteenth-century gallery publications and art books. Plates published in 1835 take in peace and war, the Sabine women, the Holy Family, landscape and Saint Bavon. An 1880 illustration associated with Titian is also included, since it derives from his own copy of Titian's composition.
