"An illuminating look at a side of the great painter usually kept in the shadows." --The Daily Beast
"Mark Lamster looks beyond Rubens's talent for era-defining sensual nudes and delves into his little-known career as a diplomat and spy. The result is an exhilarating portrait of an age as dramatic and richly toned as one of Rubens's gigantic canvases." --Ross King, author of Michelangelo and the Pope's Ceiling
