The massacre of the innocents by Rubens is back after 400 years

Kindermoord van Rubens na 400 jaar terug thuis
The Art Gallery of Ontario (AGO) is loaning the masterpiece out especially for the Baroque year. The arrival of the painting is one of the main highlights of the city festival ‘Antwerp Baroque 2018. Rubens inspires’. The writhing composition is one of the masterpieces of the Art Gallery of Ontario. The work is brimming with drama and violence. With the many references to classical antiquity, the young Rubens presents himself as a proficient ‘pictor doctus’, a learned artist who works his intellectual acumen into his oeuvre.
