Peter Paul Rubens’s zodiac sign is Cancer. According to astrologers, the sign of Cancer belongs to the element of Water, just like Scorpio and Pisces. Guided by emotion and their heart, they could have a hard time blending into the world around them. Being ruled by the Moon, phases of the lunar cycle deepen their internal mysteries and create fleeting emotional patterns that are beyond their control. As children, they don't have enough coping and defensive mechanisms for the outer world, and have to be approached with care and understanding, for that is what they give in return.
Peter Paul Rubens was born in the Year of the Ox. Another of the powerful Chinese Zodiac signs, the Ox is steadfast, solid, a goal-oriented leader, detail-oriented, hard-working, stubborn, serious and introverted but can feel lonely and insecure. Takes comfort in friends and family and is a reliable, protective and strong companion. Compatible with Snake or Rooster.
One of the most famous artists of the 16th and 17th-century Flemish Baroque and Catholic Counter-Reformation movements, he is remembered for his allegorical, religious, mythological, and historical paintings, as well as for his landscapes and portraits.
He studied art in Antwerp, eventually becoming a master Painter in the city's Guild of St. Luke. He later received further artistic training in Italy, where he was deeply influenced by the work of Caravaggio, Raphael, and Michelangelo.
Over the course of his career, he produced more than 1,400 artworks. His most famous works include The Fall of Man (1628-29), The Three Graces (1635), the Marie de' Medici cycle of paintings (1622-25), and the altarpiece The Descent from the Cross (1612-1614).
The son of Writer Maria Pypelincks and magistrate Jan Rubens, he spent his youth in Germany (then the Holy Roman Empire) and Belgium (then the Spanish Netherlands). His surviving works include drawings and paintings of one of his eight children, Nikolas; his first wife, Isabella Brant; and his second wife, Helena Fourment.
His lifetime overlapped with that of the famous Dutch Golden Age Painter Rembrandt van Rijn (known mononymously as Rembrandt).
