Summary

“Not England being guided and instructed about Italy, but Italy showing herself as she thinks, and feels, and hopes, and lives—this is the subject of Miss Zimmern’s book. Miss Zimmern has lived long and observantly in Italy; for twenty years she has not only studied her, but has succeeded in seeing things from the Italian point of view, and now writes of the real country, her hopes, works, true life and modern thought and influence. It is entirely different from books which describe Italy for the English person, and therein lies its novelty. The generous allowance of full-page plates carry out the intention of the author admirably, and show us the alluring country at her best.”  — The Bookman, 1906

    Universally celebrated for his rosy and concupiscent nudes, Peter Paul Rubens (1577-1640) was an artist whose first concern was sensuality in all its forms. This Baroque master devoted himself to a lifelong celebration of the joys and wonders of the physical realm. He felt that the human body was as lovely and natural as the many natural landscapes he painted as a young man. In a lushly illustrated text, María Varshavskaya and Xenia Yegorova explore the master at work, bringing a unique focus to Ruben’s life and work
