Regesto biografico-critico" by Raffaella Morselli, which took place at the Federico Zeri Foundation during the "Encounters in the Library 2019" event. The volume offers a biographical and critical overview of the artist Rubens, exploring his life and work through previously unpublished sources, including his correspondence, and his nephew's biography. The book provides a unique opportunity to systematize Rubens' correspondence, which has not been done before, thanks to the author's translation skills from Flemish, Latin, Greek, and Spanish. The text also sheds light on Rubens' multifaceted and atypical genius, his ability to speak multiple languages, and his double role as an artist and diplomat. The book is enriched by contributions from Cecilia Paolini, who explored previously unknown sources related to Rubens' stay in Genoa in 1605 and his diplomatic mission to Spain for the Gonzaga family. Overall, the book is a valuable resource for scholars and art lovers interested in Rubens and his life.
