Peter Paul Reubens (June 28, 1577 – May 30, 1640)
Flemish Baroque painter
Many know of his great painting skills considered one of the best off all time by some,
he excelled in portraits, landscapes, history paintings of mythological and allegorical subjects and altarpieces. But many dont realize what a great draftsman he was and funny enough but his fondness of painting full-figured women gave rise to the terms 'Rubensian' or 'Rubenesque' for plus-sized women. The term 'Rubensiaans' is also commonly used in Dutch to denote such women.
