Complete details of the works (click HERE)

A pair of antique paintings that reproduce the two famous self-portraits of the two greatest masters of the Golden Age of Flemish painting, Rubens and Van Dyck: the works, painted on oval panels and enriched by two beautiful golden wooden frames, are of pleasant impact and of great decorative value.

It was very fashionable among art collectors between the 18th and 19th centuries to decorate their homes and palaces with copies of the most ancient and famous paintings; these works of art were chosen for their decorative value, and are still perfect for placing in a living room or study.

Finely painted, they are precise replicas of the most famous self-portraits of the two painters.

The first is the self-portrait of Pierre Paul Rubens painted between 1623 and 1625, kept at Windsor Castle, made for the Prince of Wales, the future Charles I, King of England, who wanted to have an effigy of the famous painter in his collection. The second is a self-portrait by Anthoon van Dyck dated 1632, currently at the Uffizi Gallery in Florence.

In both works the subjects are portrayed wearing dark, sober but fashionable clothes made of precious fabrics, typically worn by men belonging to the upper middle class or knights at that time. They have no attributes that allude to their profession, although they wear gold chains, alluding to the success and wealth they had achieved in life.

Without doubt, both images of the two Flemish masters were copied many times and were widely circulated, also through numerous engravings.
