EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Matthaeus Yrsselius, a prominent figure from the 17th century. Created by the renowned artist Peter Paul Rubens, this portrait showcases Yrsselius in all his glory. The image is part of the esteemed collection at Kunstmuseum in Copenhagen. Yrsselius, an elderly man with a distinguished bald head and a white beard, exudes wisdom and authority. Dressed in traditional Flemish attire, he holds a staff symbolizing his religious role within Christianity. With closed eyes and hands clasped together in prayer, Yrsselius demonstrates his devout faith. The vibrant colors used by Rubens bring life to this baroque masterpiece. Every detail is meticulously captured - from the intricate folds of Yrsselius' clothing to the delicate lines etched on his face - showcasing Rubens' exceptional talent as an artist. This print transports us back to Flanders during the 17th century, allowing us to witness firsthand the beauty and grandeur of that era. It serves as a testament to both Rubens' artistic prowess and Yrsselius' significant contribution to society. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of art from our modern perspective, we are reminded of how history intertwines with religion and culture. This print serves as a reminder that even centuries later, these elements continue to shape our world today.
