EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the grandeur of Antwerp Cathedral and pays homage to the renowned Flemish Baroque painter, Peter Paul Rubens. Taken in 1867, the photograph showcases the impressive Gothic architecture of Antwerp's Cathedral of Our Lady, which was constructed over a span of 170 years. Standing tall at an astonishing height of 123 meters, the church tower dominates the skyline and holds the distinction of being the tallest church tower in Benelux. The statue of Peter Paul Rubens stands proudly in front of this architectural masterpiece, symbolizing his significant contribution to art during the Baroque era. Rubens himself resided and worked in Antwerp, making it a fitting location for his statue. As one gazes upon this image, they are transported back to a time when religious devotion and artistic expression were intertwined. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to this photograph while emphasizing its historical significance. It serves as a visual reminder that both religion and art have played integral roles in shaping Belgium's cultural identity throughout centuries. This print is not only a testament to Antwerp's rich heritage but also serves as a tribute to Peter Paul Rubens' enduring legacy as one of Flanders' most celebrated painters.
