Description: | Rubens returned to this subject several times. This painting is a copy of his earliest known composition of this subject, an oil painting on panel dated 1611, which is in the collection of the Courtauld Institute, London. A larger triptych of this subject, which follows the composition of the Courtauld painting, was then created by Rubens between 1611-14 for Antwerp Cathedral. Later versions include, Descent from the Cross, (1614-15, Musée des Beaux Arts, Valenciennes) and Descent from the Cross, (1617, Musée des Beaux Arts, Lille). | Subjects: | religion (Descent from the Cross) | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Rubens, Peter Paul (Flemish painter and draftsman, 1577-1640) Æ After | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8367... | Go to resource |
