Christoffel Jegher’s large-scale woodcut prints after Peter Paul Rubens’s compositions usually appear in black and white. This small, multi-colored portrait may be a reaction to Hendrick Goltzius’ famed chiaroscuros from around 1600. The light and shade of Jegher’s four blocks create depth, and may also mimic the coloristic effects of the Titian painting Rubens is thought to have used as a model for his drawing.
