To recreate Livy's story with Roman authenticity, Rubens drew on a wide range of sources, including not only classical texts but the growing antiquarian literature of his age, as well as archaeological evidence that he had studied in person while in Italy. The Decius Mus Cycle thus forms Rubens's first large-scale manifestation of the reception of antiquity. At the same time it reveals the inspiration of Italian Renaissance traditions.
Begun in 1617, the Decius Mus Cycle belongs to a particularly intense and productive phase of Rubens's career. Many altarpieces and other large-scale compositions were also realised in this period, which made the participation of an extensive workshop essential. Together with the preparatory modelli, the paintings of the Decius Mus Cycle testify to the interaction of master and assistants, providing clearer documentation than was previously available of Rubens's creative process. Technical examination undertaken specifically for the present volume - including full-surface analysis using X-ray and infrared reflectography - has resolved many puzzles and will provide future researchers with a wealth of new information.
