EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enchanting portrait of Rubens' second wife, Helena Fourment. Created by Francesco Bartolozzi in the mid-late 18th century, this engraving beautifully captures the essence of a Dutch lady from the seventeenth century. Helena Fourment, dressed in an elegant eighteenth-century attire, exudes grace and poise. The intricate lace details on her dress add a touch of refinement to her ensemble. With a ruff collar framing her face, she gazes confidently at the viewer with eyes that hold both mystery and depth. The artist's skillful hand brings out every delicate feature of Helena's countenance - from her soft complexion to the gentle curve of her lips. Bartolozzi masterfully translates Peter Paul Rubens' original painting into this monochrome masterpiece. Displayed at Houghton Hall in the Collection of the Earl of Oxford, this engraving is not just a mere reproduction but an exquisite work of art itself. It serves as a testament to Rubens' love for his wife and immortalizes their connection for generations to come. As we admire this remarkable piece, we are transported back in time to witness the beauty and allure that captivated one of history's greatest painters. This print collector's treasure allows us to appreciate both Rubens' artistic genius and Helena Fourment's timeless charm as they intertwine through centuries past.
