- Summary:
- "This book excavates the unequaled reception of Flemish artist Peter Paul Rubens in Latin America in the form of prints made after his works, arguing that colonial artists in the New World forged new frameworks for artistic creativity by conforming to European printed designs"--Provided by publisher.
- "Peter Paul Rubens (1577-1640) never crossed the Atlantic, but the impact of prints made after his designs in colonial Latin America was profound. Rubens in Repeat id the first comprehensive study of this transatlantic phenomenon. Copying, particularly in colonial contexts, has held negative implications. Yet analyzing the interpretation of printed sources and recontextualizing the resulting works allow a critical reassessment of this frequently overlooked category of art. Focusing on the viceroyalties of New Spain and Peru in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, this book argues that the use of European prints was an essential component of the very framework in which colonial artists in Latin America forged new paradigms of artistic authorship." -- Back cover
