Rubens
The Combat Between Saint George and the Dragon, c.1606/07
Rubens depicts Saint George in the centre of the composition, on a rearing white horse and wearing armour, in line with the traditional iconography. All the strength of his robust body goes into defeating the dragon who is depicted as squirming at his feet in dramatic foreshortening.
We made the reproduction of this rare Rubens painting for a client, who was astonished by the masterly manner and bold brushstrokes in the flowing mane ( see details ), things so characteristic of Rubens.
