Policy and Paint: Or Some Incidents in the Lives of Dudley Carleton and Peter Paul Rubens is a non-fiction book written by Thomas De Longueville and published in 1913. The book explores the lives of two prominent figures in European history: Dudley Carleton, an English diplomat, and Peter Paul Rubens, a Flemish Baroque painter. De Longueville weaves together the stories of these two men, highlighting their unique experiences and contributions to their respective fields. He delves into Carleton's diplomatic career, focusing on his time as ambassador to the Dutch Republic and his role in negotiating the Twelve Years' Truce. He also explores Rubens' artistic achievements, including his famous paintings and his work as a court painter for the Spanish Habsburgs.Throughout the book, De Longueville examines the intersections between politics and art during the early modern period. He discusses how Carleton and Rubens navigated the complex political landscape of their time and how their work and personal lives were shaped by the political events of the day.Overall, Policy and Paint offers a fascinating glimpse into the lives of two influential figures from the 17th century. It provides readers with a deeper understanding of the political and artistic currents of the time and how they intersected in the lives of these two remarkable men.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
