Decius Mus Addressing The Legions

Peter Paul Rubens's oil sketch for the Decius Mus cycle captures the Roman consul on a raised plinth, arm outstretched in oratory, as armoured legionnaires bearing eagle standards and battle regalia crowd around him beneath a stormy sky and golden trees. The dynamic diagonal composition and characteristically Rubenesque musculature make this a tour-de-force of Baroque narrative painting. This art print of Rubens's Decius Mus Addressing the Legions suits a dramatic living room feature wall, a home library, or an office gallery where classical heroism and painterly grandeur set the mood.
