Public Note:

This is the second volume of Part V in the Corpus Rubenianum, dealing with the subject of the "Life of Christ before the Passion". Works presented span the artist's entire oeuvre; the subject matter appears in all four volumes of the Gospels (Christ's Baptism to the Betrayal of Judas), but the sequences are not always logical or chronological in order. Various well-known compositions from subjects of Christ's Ministry may be missing here, but covered elsewhere in the Corpus.
