This thoroughly interdisciplinary collection of essays explores the multi-faceted
relationship between international politics, diplomacy and the visual arts that developed
during the early seventeenth century. Several chapters provide major re-evaluations
of the career of Peter Paul Rubens as an artistdiplomat, based on previously neglected
manuscript sources and a deepened analysis of the social and political environments
in which he operated. Other contributors focus on Rubens<U+2019>s contemporary
court artists, such as Anthony van Dyck, Guido Reni and Diego Velázquez. In addition
to providing original interpretations of several important paintings and painting
cycles, the volume examines such topics as the evolution of personified images of
nationality, representations of dynastic marriages, the material culture of royal
bridal trousseaus, the importance of details of costume and colour to the visual codes
of baroque courts, and the roles played by artists within court societies. Ranging
across Western Europe, from England to the Low Countries, France, Germany, Spain and
Italy, these essays demonstrate conclusively the subtlety and complexity of visual
communication within early baroque court societies, which enabled artists to convey
complex political messages through paintings. The contributors to this volume display
a variety of methodological approaches, demonstrating many different ways in which
historical research can be fruitfully integrated with art historical analysis to generate
new insights into both the visual culture and the politics of baroque Europe. -- publisher's
