The main goal of the Rubens, Van Dyck and the Splendour of Flemish Painting exhibition is to highlight Peter Paul Rubens’s genius and the pivotal influence of his artistic output upon his age through works in our own collections and the loaned pieces, while showcasing the versatile, stylistically and thematically rich 17th-century Flemish painting, which developed from and alongside Rubens’ art.
Similarly to the Museum of Fine Arts’ other large-scale exhibitions, a richly illustrated catalogue containing studies and catalogue entries in Hungarian and English was made for this show with the participation of renowned foreign and Hungarian art historians.
